Semenyo Signs Off in Style With Last-Gasp Winner as Bournemouth Stun Spurs

Antoine Semenyo brought the curtain down on his Bournemouth career in unforgettable fashion, striking deep into stoppage time to seal a dramatic 3–2 comeback victory over Tottenham Hotspur in what is expected to be his final outing before completing a move to Manchester City.

Making his 110th appearance for the Cherries, the Ghana international produced a moment of individual brilliance when it mattered most. With the clock ticking beyond 90 minutes and the game finely poised, Semenyo latched onto a pass from David Brooks, shifted the ball onto his right foot and rifled a low drive into the far corner, sparking wild celebrations around the Vitality Stadium.

The decisive goal came just minutes after Bournemouth appeared to have lost momentum. Spurs had earlier clawed their way back into the contest through a spectacular Joao Palhinha bicycle kick in the 78th minute, a strike that seemed to have swung the contest back in the visitors’ favour. Instead, it set the stage for Semenyo’s final act.

As the final whistle sounded, the winger was given a rousing standing ovation from all sides of the ground, an emotional farewell for a player who has become a firm favourite on the south coast. The moment underlined his impact at the club and provided a fitting end to his Bournemouth chapter.

Semenyo bows out having left a lasting mark, combining power, flair and decisive moments throughout his spell. This season alone, the 26-year-old featured in 20 matches, scoring 10 goals and providing three assists — numbers that underline why Manchester City moved swiftly to secure his signature.

For Bournemouth supporters, it was a goodbye wrapped in magic; for Semenyo, a storybook ending written with one final, unforgettable strike.
