Semenyo’s Premier League magic against Man United
Semenyo has clearly developed a knack for tormenting Manchester United, having scored in both meetings last season.
On December 22, 2024, Bournemouth stunned Old Trafford with a 3-0 victory, a result that sent shockwaves across the Premier League, as Manchester United featured.
Dean Huijsen opened the scoring in the 29th minute, Justin Kluivert doubled the advantage past the hour mark, and Semenyo sealed the victory in the 89th minute with a composed left-footed finish past André Onana.
He struck again at Dean Court on April 27, 2025, opening the scoring in the 23rd minute with a near-identical left-footed strike, helping Bournemouth secure a 1-1 draw.
Both goals against United last season came with his left foot and beat the same goalkeeper, highlighting his personal dominance in the fixture.
