Bournemouth nearly safe after beating Swansea 3-2 in EPL

In a thrilling see-saw contest, after Max Gradel had put Bournemouth ahead courtesy of a mistake from Swansea keeper Lukasz Fabianski, the hosts were pegged back within a couple of minutes late in the first half as Modou Barrow curled in his first goal for the visitors.

Swansea City first-team coach Alan Curtis was left ruing individual errors after losing 3-2 at AFC Bournemouth on Saturday.

Bournemouth may have all but guaranteed their Premier League survival but Steve Cook insists they have not finished yet.

U.S. airstrike on al-Shabaab training camp in Somalia kills 150 fighters
Another intelligence official said al-Shabab members training there were planning to attack a drone base in the region. The US had monitored the facility for weeks prior to the attack, according to Pentagon spokesman Jeffrey Davis.

A game that could have been a relegation six-pointer a month ago now has a lot less riding on it, with both Bournemouth and Swansea having built up a cushion between themselves and the drop zone. There are so many games to go that you can't predict what will be needed.

Asked if Cherries were safe: "Yes, I would think so".

"I thought it was a very good game for the neutral - not so much for anyone supporting either club - frenetic pace, end to end". "He gave us a real edge and threat and it is a positive that we score two away from home, but it also makes it more frustrating not to get anything from it".

Premier League strugglers Newcastle United are looking to bring former Liverpool and Real Madrid boss Rafael Benitez to St. There are 15 forum seats occupied by supporters - each representing a broad group of the club's diverse fan base.

But Swansea could not recover a third time after defender Cook nodded home Matt Ritchie's cross with 12 minutes remaining. Even from his hospital bed, Francesco Guidolin has proved so far to be an astute managerial appointment, while the same could be said about the January loan signing of Leroy Fer, who has been influential in midfield. "It just means we need to work doubly hard between now and the end of the season".

"Overall, I felt it was two teams trying to play the game on the floor, and I don't think either side had the ascendancy". I'd love to have 38 points, put it that way. "We've got a number of games to get [the points] in but some tough looking fixtures, so we look forward to the rest of the season", he said.
