Wolves 2-4 Bournemouth Highlights: Kluivert nets hat-trick of pens

Justin Kluivert wrote his name into the history books after becoming the first player to score a hat-trick of penalties in the same Premier League game as Bournemouth thumped Wolves 4-2.

The chaotic game at Molineux got off to an electric start, which saw the Cherries awarded an early spot kick inside two minutes.

Kluivert stepped up to score the spot-kick and break the deadlock for the visitors.

However, it took Wolves less than two minutes to equalise, with Jorgen Strand Larsen levelling the scores.

Just as quickly Wolves got themselves back into the game, they just as quickly gave away another goal. Milos Kerkez thumped the ball into the roof of the net from a close angle to restore Bournemouth’s lead in the eighth minute.

Then, 10 minutes later, the Cherries were awarded another spot-kick. This time, Wolves keeper Jose Sa was at fault, sending Evanilson tumbling to the turf.

Kluivert once again stepped up to successfully convert the penalty and double his tally in the first half.

Boos rang out at Molineux which saw the chaotic scenes continue. Sa incredibly jumped into the crowd at the half-time break to confront a fan, who was later chucked out by security.

Wolves gave themselves a glimmer of hope of getting back into the game as Larsen got his brace in the 69th minute.

But just like in the first half, his goal was later all for nothing when Sa gave away another penalty.

Evanilson was fouled once again and Kluivert stepped up to score his third penalty of the game, completing his hat-trick.

Evanilson Spot On To Win All Three Penalties For Bournemouth

While Kluivert will grab the football headlines, he will have his team-mate Evanilson to thank for doing so.

The Brazilian was a menace up top for the Cherries and caused the hosts plenty of problems up front.

He won all three spot-kicks for Bournemouth, which takes the Cherries up to 11th in the table.

Meanwhile, Wolves stay in the bottom three on just nine points.
