Dec 4 Yeovil Town 2-1 AFC Bournemouth Att: 5321

Last updated : 04 December 2007 By Exiles Reporter
hardly a good start for the Cherries as they fell behind as early as the 3rd minute when an outswinging corner from left by-line taken left-footed by Zoltan Stieber was converted by Terry Skiverton, right-footed to the top-right of goal from right side of penalty area.

It didn't improve the as the half went on as the Cherries fell further behind in the 38th minute a Warne cross found Walker, who headed home from all of 6 yards.

Vokes should have pulled a goal back in the 60th minute when he managed to somehow hit the outside of the post with the goal gapping.

A goal did come in the 65th minute when Pitman (according to the commentary - or Cummings from the various web sites) converted after Jones handled on the line, which also produced a red card.

Only then did the Cherries start to play and started to create a few chances, but it was to no avail as Yeovil battled to preserve their lead.

The result leaves the Cherries 6 points adrift of safety at the bottom of League One, with an inferior goal difference with a trip to Tranmere Rovers to come on Saturday.
