Tyler Adams scored his first goal in over a year as Bournemouth rallied to a 3-1 victory at Sparta Prague, maintaining their perfect Europa League record. United States captain Adams opened the scoring in the 57th minute after Tobias Guddal's sending off, capitalizing on a defensive error. The Cherries had fallen behind to Ebrima Singhateh's brilliance but punished the Czech side's mistake. Evanilson and Rayan added late goals to seal the win, keeping Bournemouth unbeaten in four European matches.
Bournemouth faced an early setback when Lewis Cook missed a penalty, hitting the post. Gambian forward Singhateh then gave Sparta the lead with individual skill. However, Guddal's second yellow card moments later shifted momentum. Adams equalized shortly after, and the English side dominated the remainder. The win extends their winning streak and strengthens their position for direct progression to the last 16.
Despite a strong start from the home side, Bournemouth's composure after the sending off proved decisive. The result highlights their adaptability and clinical finishing in European competition, marking a significant moment for Adams' return to form.
