Bournemouth football fans are celebrating the team's latest success in European competition.

The Cherries beat Sparta Prague 3-1, which keeps the club's 100% record in the Europa League this season and puts Bournemouth top of the table and on course for the next stage.

After the match in Prague, fan Chris Latchem joked: "Genuinely, I feel like maybe Europe's not big enough for Bournemouth these days."

Tom Latchem added: "We may be getting too ahead of ourselves, but put it this way, I have already booked a hotel for me, him and my brother in Frankfurt [for the final]."

This season's Europa League final will be held in Frankfurt on 26 May.

Substitutes Tyler Adams, Evanilson and Rayan all scored on Thursday evening, as the Cherries came from behind to make it four wins from four in their first European campaign.

It was their seventh win in a row in all competitions, with attention now turning to a Premier League trip to Ipswich on Sunday.

Ben Phillips is pictured during an interview at night. He is wearing a dark blue woolly hat and glasses and has two scarves around his neck.

Fellow fan Ben Phillips said: "In the second half I thought we were absolutely unreal. We absolutely deserved that, we dominated them.

"I am very happy that we have won four in a row in the Europa League."

Another group of supporters said: "Unbelievable. Who'd have thought back in the day when we were minus-17 that we'd be here today."

The club started the 2008-09 season in League Two with a 17-point deduction.
