ANTOINE Semenyo said goodbye to Bournemouth by clinching a dramatic 3-2 win that heaped pressure on under-fire Tottenham boss Thomas Frank on Wednesday.
Semenyo is on the verge of a reported £65 million move to Manchester City and the Ghana forward ensured his likely last game for the Cherries was a memorable one.
On his 26th birthday, Semenyo scored his 10th goal of the season in stoppage-time at the Vitality Stadium to leave Frank in turmoil.
Joao Palhinha’s bicycle kick equaliser looked set to earn Frank a reprieve after first-half goals from Evanilson and Eli Junior Kroupi overturned Mathys Tel’s early opener for the visitors.
But Frank’s spluttering side have mustered just two wins from their last 12 league games as angry Tottenham fans turn on the beleaguered Dane.
Frank said afterward: “I think it's fair to say everyone involved in Tottenham, it’s a tough one to take…
“That is extremely painful to be part of, so of course people are frustrated, that's natural.”
