Hello and welcome to live coverage of Bournemouth v Manchester City.

That's full time. A hard-earned win for City. Countless players booked. A late goal from Sterling which then earned him a second yellow. Two other players should have been sent off for actual fouls, and Bournemouth remain pointless despite hitting the post when it was 1-1. A remarkable performance.

Stones replaces Silva. Now Sterling is off! Sterling ran to the crowd in his celebrations, drawing fans onto the pitch with his sheer happiness, and Mike Dean gets to finally issue a red after so many better opportunities to do so.

GOAL! Bournemouth 1-2 Manchester City. Sterling scores - Bournemouth fall back as City go for one more push. They attack down the right, the ball comes inside to Sterling. He steadies himself, and forces a shot that is deflected, looping into the far side of the goal, over the static Begovic.

Daniels heads behind Sane's cross from the left, conceding a corner on the right. A short corner sees De Bruyne's cross cleared by Begovic's punch. Arter hooks a clearance to the City defence. King robs Kompany and sends Ederson sprawling to save.

Now Adam Smith is booked for a foul on the right wing. Ake heads a ball in from De Bruyne.

Mousset is on for Afobe.

Sterling is now booked for a foul on Arter, tripping him to stop a counter. There have been approximately 6,000 yellow cards in the match so far.

There will be five more minutes of this. On the touchline, Guardiola is out of his technical area attempting to bully Eddie Howe. Howe doesn't care, but the referee comes to tell them both to keep quiet.

Aguero has a free kick, 25 yards out, and he attempts to whip an effort into the bottom corner. It's a few yards wide.

Arter is now booked for blocking off Sterling's run down the middle. The graphic is mistaken.

Daniels slides in at the last minute with a cross from the left coming from Mendy. David Silva sprints towards the ball and Daniels just gets there in time.

Jesus is off, Sane is on to try to find a breakthrough.

Otamendi rolls all over the pitch, thumping the ground after he thinks he is fouled by King, but Dean waves away the protests.

Now Mendy is in on a booking for a tackle on King. Let's see what Dean does with this when he makes another obvious clanger.

Danilo spins into room in the box and fires in a low cross that Begovic palms away, and away from danger.

Cook goes in high on Jesus with a late challenge, and doesn't even get booked! This is a remarkable performance from Dean.

De Bruyne swings in a cross from the left. Otamendi meets it with a leap, and guides a shot through the crowd and against hte post.

Defoe is off, Afobe replaces him.

A slow run from Sterling sees him tackled, the ball running inside for Aguero, and his shot is saved at the near post by Begovic, who has done well so far today.

Mendy fires in a cross that Danilo collects on the right. The ball is worked to Fernandinho, and his low shot is snapped up by Begovic.
