Brighton and Hove Albion 2-2 AFC Bournemouth: South coast clubs play out New Year's Day thriller

Callum Wilson's second goal in three games earned Bournemouth a 2-2 Premier League draw at Brighton.

The former Coventry striker's reflex finish secured a point for the Cherries at the Amex Stadium, after Glenn Murray's strike had left the hosts eyeing victory. Brighton forward Jose Izquierdo produced two assists in an unselfish display, teeing up first Anthony Knockaert and then Murray.

Steve Cook's looping header had the visitors level at half-time, however, and Wilson snaffled them a point with his fifth league goal of the campaign 11 minutes from time.

Wilson's increasing sharpness represents a clear boost to Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe, with the 25-year-old still finding his feet after two nasty and lengthy knee ligament injuries.
