Evanilson's persistence pays off
- Published
Evanilson will doubtless find the net in much more aesthetically pleasing fashion than by picking the pocket of Ipswich goalkeeper Christian Walton.
Walton dropped a shoulder in an attempt to outfox Evanilson, but the forward was wise to the ploy, nicked the ball off him and coolly slotted home.
However, the Brazilian's persistence and alertness in closing down - his role was pivotal in Bournemouth's second as well - were duly rewarded in a deserved win at Portman Road.
It ensured he became the first Cherries player to score in five consecutive Premier League games.
Bournemouth boss Marco Rose was pretty pleased with the 27-year-old's hassling and harrying.
