A calamitous error from Leeds goalkeeper James Trafford set in-form Bournemouth on course for a 2-0 Premier League victory at the Vitality Stadium.

The England international inexplicably gave away possession following a short goal-kick, allowing Justin Kluivert to set up Cherries forward Evanilson to score his fifth goal in six games in the 31st minute.

Substitute Amine Adli sealed Bournemouth’s third successive top-flight success – and sixth in all competitions – in added time to lift them a point above Leeds in the table.

The visitors had been the better team before falling behind but could not prevent their winless run stretching to five top-flight games.

Leeds striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin was denied a goal on his 50th appearance for the club after his 11th-minute finish was ruled out for a handball spotted by VAR.

Visiting boss Daniel Farke, who celebrated his 50th birthday on Friday, watched his side create little on the south coast, with his disappointing afternoon compounded by a first-half booking.
