Kluivert and Semenyo of Bournemouth punish the forceful Burnley as the boos resound | first division

Frustration is growing in Turf Moor at the abject nature of their futile attempts to remain in the first division. Justin Kluivert and Antoine Semenyo condemned Burnley to their 11th home defeat in 14 games to give Bournemouth their first win since Boxing Day.

The results table doesn't lie and the teams came in as the two worst in the league, having earned five points between them in the calendar year. Neither of them showed much confidence and, despite being by far the best team, Burnley He rarely seemed to score a goal, but instead had to accept a fate with which he had become all too familiar.

Burnley is a club with strong traditions. With Sean Dyche in the Premier League, everyone knew what to expect from them: they were direct and robust, constantly pushing teams to punch above their weight. With Vincent Kompany, and back in the top flight, they are equally predictable. They get off to a strong start, look dangerous in the final third until they fail to deal with something simple and fall behind.

In the first five minutes Bournemouth They were put under a lot of pressure, which led to Wilson Odobert's first shot, Burnley's first in three games, following a Lorenz Assignon cross, but Neto saved with little effort. There was a lot of strength and energy in what Burnley did in the early stages, but really it's the hope that kills you.

Neto threw the ball upfield and Burnley were unable to deal with it, allowing Lewis Cook to lob a pass over for Kluivert. The Dutch striker took control, Dara O'Shea was easily sold before Kluivert struck the ball from close range.

Burnley were the better team, dominating possession without finding the cutting edge that has eluded them all season. Bournemouth knew they were in a game and were trying to slow things down, losing time each time they restarted. Kompany was clearly annoyed by these antics, causing the fourth official to repeatedly take note of his annoyance.

Burnley had four excellent chances in a row. First, David Fofana had a kick blocked, but Jacob Bruun Larsen's next one was blocked by Adam Smith. Bruun Larsen then had a free kick which the goalkeeper magnificently deflected under the bar and Vitinho headed in from close range. It was starting to look like Burnley would never score again. Maybe they won't.

A Burnley player put the ball in the net when Josh Cullen turned from a few yards out, but David Coote assessed that Bournemouth right-back Smith had been pushed back in the build-up and ruled it out, much to Kompany's chagrin.

Bournemouth's ambition was limited, happy to absorb the constant pressure while confident that Burnley would be unable to capitalize on any scoring opportunities. Andoni Iraola's team wanted to play on the counter, knowing that if they could quickly change Burnley's fragile defense, they could do some damage.

Semenyo had two excellent chances on the counterattack to finish off Burnley's spirit, but he sent them wide. He finally sealed the points by dribbling into the area before his shot was deflected by Charlie Taylor. I waved the home crowd out at a good pace, booing as they went.

You make your own luck in this game and the Clarets have had none. Burnley are used to this type of defeat and cannot complain that they are 11 points away from safety with as many more to play for.
