Ollie Watkins became Aston Villa's record Premier League goalscorer as his winner at Bournemouth helped Unai Emery's side boost their Champions League qualification hopes.
In the final minute of first-half stoppage time Watkins guided Morgan Rogers' low cross into the bottom corner with a delicate, deft touch.
It was the England striker's 75th league goal for Villa and moved him one clear of Gabby Agbonlahor's previous record haul.
When Watkins equalled Agbonlahor's record in April he was resigned to sharing Villa's starting striker spot with Manchester United loan player Marcus Rashford.
At the time Watkins said he was "fuming" with his lack of game time.
