Bournemouth produce one of the greatest Premier League comebacks as they recover from 3-0 down to beat Luton in a seven-goal thriller at Vitality Stadium.

Dominic Solanke scored his 15th Premier League goal of the season to make it 3-1 as Bournemouth began their comeback

Luton had seemed destined for a huge win on an emotional night, with this game having been rearranged following the December fixture being abandoned when captain Tom Lockyer suffered cardiac arrest on the pitch. By the 65th minute the hosts were level, with their second goal coming through Ukrainian centre-back Zabarnyi heading home from close range amid a crowd of bodies following a corner.

Yet for all their impressive attacking play and neutral goodwill, this instead goes down as another hard-luck story and points dropped as they failed to deal with a revitalised Bournemouth after the break. Arriving with his team-mates on the Luton coach, Lockyer was given the biggest cheer by both sets of fans. On the pitch before kick-off, he met and thanked the medics who saved his life. There was applause from all four stands in the 59th minute, the point at which Lockyer collapsed in the original fixture.
