13 - Philip Billing and Diego Rico - swerving home his first Cherries goal in some style - joined the list of different goalscorers for the season, which has now risen to 13. 

11 - Of the 29 goals scored by the first team so far this campaign, 11 have been struck from outside the box.

4 - The side ended the match with four academy graduates on the field, starter Sam Surridge joined by Nnamdi Ofoborh, Jaidon Anthony and debutant Gavin Kilkenny.

7 - In total, there were seven academy graduates in the visiting matchday squad, with Mark Travers, Jordan Zemura and Jack Simpson also on the team sheet as substitutes.
