Bournemouth midfielder Amine Adli struck deep in second-half stoppage time to condemn Liverpool to their seventh Premier League defeat of the season on Saturday, leaving the reigning champions still searching for their first league win of 2026.

Goals from Evanilson and Alejandro Jimenez had Bournemouth 2-0 up by the 33rd minute, but Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk pulled one back before the break and Domink Szoboszlai levelled with a brilliant free kick in the 80th minute.

The Reds looked set for a fifth draw in a row in the league but Adli struck in the 95th minute to shatter their visitors and send them back to Merseyside empty-handed.

The defeat leaves Liverpool languishing in fourth place on 36 points, 14 behind leaders Arsenal, who face Manchester United on Sunday, while Bournemouth move up to 13th on 30 points.
