Middlesbrough take victory over Bournemouth
Andraz Sporar scored from the penalty spot as Middlesbrough moved closer to the Championship
play-off places with victory over second-placed Bournemouth, who missed the chance to go top.
The Slovenian striker calmly slotted home the only goal of the game early in the second half after Isaiah Jones was
brought down by Jaidon Anthony.
Andraz Sporar’s goal was his fourth of the season for Middlesbrough so far.
Bournemouth would have gone above Fulham with victory at the Riverside.
They are now without a win in six games and have only won one of their past eight, allowing chasing West Brom and
Blackburn to close the gap.
Middlesbrough, meanwhile, are ninth in the table after a third win in four games.
