Bournemouth beat AC Milan 3-0 at Vitality Stadium to move to three wins from three in the Europa League league stage. Justin Kluivert and Marcus Tavernier scored first-half penalties before Amine Adli added a late free-kick.

Milan played most of the match with 10 men after goalkeeper Mike Maignan was sent off. The victory gave Bournemouth a major European scalp against the seven-time European Cup winners.

Sky Sports reported that Kluivert converted in the eighth minute and Tavernier doubled the lead in the 32nd, while Adli finished the scoring in the 84th minute. BBC Sport described it as a comfortable win for Marco Rose's side.
