Bournemouth 3-1 Middlesbrough: Cherries bolster play-off hopes
Jefferson Lerma's first goal in 34 matches put the Cherries back in frontBournemouth enhanced their play-off bid and dealt a blow to Middlesbrough's top-six hopes with a hard-fought win.
Philip Billing latched onto Arnaud Danjuma's flick-on over the top of Boro's defence and planted a half-volley into the bottom corner.
Duncan Watmore controlled Yannick Bolasie's pass into the box and lashed in a deserved equaliser off the right-hand post.
But the hosts were soon back in front through Jefferson Lerma's deflected shot, and Dominic Solanke stabbed in his 12th goal of the season late on to seal the points.
