Bournemouth Triumphs 3-0 Over AC Milan in Europa League
Bournemouth secured a significant 3-0 home victory over 10-man AC Milan in the Europa League on Thursday, achieving three wins from their first three games. Justin Kluivert and Marcus Tavernier scored first-half penalties after Milan's goalkeeper and captain Mike Maignan was red-carded for a foul on Tyler Adams.
Amine Adli sealed the win with an 84th-minute free-kick. This victory marks Bournemouth's inaugural Europa League campaign, having previously won against Real Sociedad and Sturm Graz.
They became the first English club since Sunderland in the 1973/74 season to win their first three European fixtures. Bournemouth will face Sparta Prague and Celta Vigo in November.
In other matches, Juventus drew 2-2 with Rennes, with a late goal disallowed by VAR, while Sunderland drew 1-1 in Poland.
