King equalised after own goal opener

In what was an open start to the game at Bournemouth's Vitality Stadium, the away side took the lead in rather fortunate fashion, as Colombian international Jefferson Lerma converted past his own keeper.

Sead Kolasinac took the ball wide for Arsenal on the left before sending a low cross into the middle only for one of Eddie Howe's men to meet instead. 

Sliding to the ground, Lerma was unfortunate as he caught the ball ever-so sweetly on the volley and converted past Begovic from 15 yards, before the Bosnian had chance to react.

It took Bournemouth just 12 minutes to reply, as they equalised on the stroke of half-time. Wilson drove forward before playing in Brooks through the middle, and the former Sheffield United midfielder in turn found Joshua King, returning to the side on the back of an injury, on the left-side of the area.

The Norwegian international finished exquisitely, directing the ball with his left boot into the top left corner of Bernd Leno's goal.
