BOURNEMOUTH (Reuters) - A quick-fire Jefferson Lerma double helped Bournemouth beat Leeds United 4-1 at home in the Premier League on Sunday, lifting them further away from relegation danger and leaving the visitors a point clear of the drop zone.

Leeds have 30 points to sit 16th -- a point above 18th-placed Leicester City and two above 19th-placed Everton, who play each other on Monday.

"We were working hard before and suffered huge injury problems with a squad were weren't really able to strengthen in the summer. Then new ownership in January, so new players arriving and some back from injury. Patrick Bamford reduced the deficit for Leeds eight minutes later when the unmarked English striker got on the end of a Wilfried Gnonto cross to head home past Neto in Bournemouth's goal.
