Huddersfield 4-1 Bournemouth: Steve Mounie double sees Terriers climb out of drop zone

Steve Mounie's double secured Huddersfield a 4-1 home win against Bournemouth and lifted them straight back out of the Premier League's relegation zone.

Alex Pritchard's early opener for the Terriers was quickly cancelled out by Junior Stanislas, but Mounie restored his side's lead before half-time and followed up by heading his eighth goal of the season in the second period.

Rajiv van La Parra rounded off a convincing win for Town by converting a stoppage-time penalty.

It was a crucial victory for Huddersfield, who notched their first points of 2018 after last week's defeat at Manchester United had extended their winless league run to eight matches and plunged them into the bottom three for the first time.
