The Cherries failed to excite in this game and went down to 10-men when Steve Cook misjudged an attempt to get back to Josh Windass and put him off from putting Sheffield Wednesday ahead. With Barry Bannan scoring from the penalty Bournemouth tried reshuffling the deck, but this time there were no late saviours. Sheffield Wednesday also went down to 10-men as well in the last few minutes, but Bournemouth couldn't find a leveller for the scorebaord.
Steve Cook gets his marching orders.
Bournemouth were at full strength to take on Sheffield Wednesday. In came Josh King, Dan Gosling, David Brooks and Jefferson Lerma. Dominic Solanke, Lewis Cook and Junior Stanislas moved to the bench, while Philip Billing didn't make the squad.

Summary
Well the unbeaten record goes which was perhaps becoming a burden. Bournemouth didn't start well again and the flat first half wasn't so easy for Tindall to turnaround this time. Bournemouth held most of the possession, but the shooting was wayward and with Steve Cook unlucky to be sent off Begovic couldn't save the penalty. It was a poor night and many of the players will be disappointed with their performances.
