Cherries reserves draw 2-2 with Swansea

AFC Bournemouth's second string drew 2-2 with Swansea on Wednesday afternoon.

In front of a healthy crowd with plenty of kids taking advantage of the free entry at half term, Liam Feeney opened the scoring after he met a good cross from the right wing.

The former Salisbury winger troubled the Swansea defence with his pace and threatened to extend the lead, however the Championship side turned the game on its head with goals either side of half time. First from Matthew Wright and the second from Chad Bond.

The Cherries continued to pile the pressure on with chances for both Alan Connell and Josh McQuoid.

But it was a poorly hit free-kick from McQuoid which resulted in a goal when the visiting keeper bundled the ball into his own net.

Alan Connell had a chance to take the win with a curling effort, but his chance hit the post and bounced clear.

The game would have been a good work out for many Cherries players with Ryan Garry, Alan Connell, Jeff Goulding, Ryan Pryce and Josh McQuoid all getting 90 minutes, while Warren Cummings and Liam Feeney both played the first half.

The match also saw various trialists have a run out with Dominic Merella looking ok at right wing, Ashley Hemmings playing the first half up front before falling back to left wing and Aaron Morris from Cardiff who impressed at right back.

Cherries: Pryce, Morris, Cummings, Breen, Garry, McQuoid, Merella, Goulding, Connell, Hemmings, Feeney.

Subs: McCallum, Austin, Webb, Stephenson, Preston

Swans: David Cornell; Matty Collins (C), Steven Berry, Jamie Grimes, Joe Walsh; Keiran Howard, Jazz Richards, Gabriel Edwards-Tawiah, Chad Bond, Chris Jones; Matthew Wright.

Subs: Lee Lucas, Joe Harris, Daniel Alfei, Anthony Finselbach
