FT: 0-0. Both teams had chances, and both will feel they should have won, but in the end it finishes goalless meaning both have 34 points.
Smith puts the free-kick well over.
Romeu gets the game's first booking after bundling over Fraser less than 25 yards from goal.
Yellow card
O. Romeu
Three added minutes.
It opens up nicely for Arter who unleashes a left-footed drive from 25 yards which Forster palms away at full stretch.
Spectacular punch from Boruc to clear a teasing Boufal cross.
The game is getting stretched now as Redmond sees a 20-yard strike deflected over.
A McQueen cross is only half cleared by Cook, allowing Cedric to try an overhead kick, but it goes wide.
Boufal threads a lovely ball through for Long but the Irishman is falling as he shoots and can't get much power on the ball, meaning it's an easy save for Boruc.
McQueen on for the under-siege Saints in place of Tadic.
On
S. McQueen
Off
D. Tadic
MISSED! Arter skies it! He touched the ball with his standing foot and then sent it flying into the stands!
PENALTY! Wilshere tries to slip in Fraser but Yoshida makes a great sliding interception, however Bertrand had pulled him to the ground so it's a penalty!. Great spot.
Another great chance comes Pugh's way as Daniels' cross drops to him eight yards out but he takes a touch and then sees his shot blocked.
This would be an ideal time to score your first Bournemouth goal.
How did Bournemouth not score? After an initial goalmouth scramble, Smith hits the post from the edge of the box and the rebound falls to Pugh who then sees his shot saved by Forster and in the ensuing scramble can't divert the ball goalwards .
King off, Wilshere on. Surprising he's sacrificed rather than Afobe.
Tadic slots Long in behind Cook and he chips Boruc with his first-time shot but gets a little to much curl on the ball and it goes wide.
Boufal shows off show impressive footwork to get away from a pair of defenders but ultimately runs out of room and half-heartedly appeals for a penalty after going to ground with Fraser.
