Bournemouth moved into fifth place in the Premier League as Ryan Fraser scored twice in an entertaining win over 10-man Leicester City.

The hosts were three ahead by the break, with Joshua King adding a penalty to Fraser's double strike.

Adam Smith made it 4-0 before James Maddison and Marc Albrighton replied for the Foxes late on.

Visiting captain Wes Morgan was sent off with 21 minutes remaining after receiving his second yellow card.

Bournemouth had mostly looked comfortable until Leicester's belated resurgence, although Asmir Begovic produced a brilliant double save to deny Jamie Vardy and James Maddison while the score was only 1-0.

But the late goals flattered Claude Puel's side, who slip back to ninth after a second consecutive defeat.

Fraser's first goal was a curling shot around Kasper Schmeichel's left hand from outside the box, and his second a poke through the Leicester keeper's legs.

Ricardo Pereira's handball gave King the chance to extend the lead from the spot, and Fraser was involved again when his pull-back set up Smith to score on his 100th Premier League appearance.

What a difference a year makes for Cherries

On this date in 2017 Bournemouth were going into their fifth Premier League game of the season at the foot of the table after four straight defeats.

A 2-1 win over Brighton that day saw them move in the right direction; this victory 12 months later puts Eddie Howe's side among exalted company.

While Fraser's two goals will get a lot of the attention, important contributions from King and fellow striker Callum Wilson also played their part in an impressive performance.

King made the most of uncertainty in the Leicester defence to feed Fraser for the first goal, while Wilson allowed the ball to bounce over him before a precise pass to his Scottish team-mate for Fraser's second.

The Cherries seemed destined for their first clean sheet since the opening-day victory over Cardiff, and the sloppy way they conceded twice to seemingly well-beaten opponents with 10 men will annoy Howe.

But games against Burnley, Crystal Palace and Watford before the next international break offer Howe's side the chance to maintain their good start to the season.

Indiscipline costs Foxes

Harry Maguire's yellow card after just 12 minutes put the Foxes' England international defender on the back foot, before Morgan went into referee Craig Pawson's book for the first time just before the break.

By that point, the home fans, players and coaching staff had been baying for Maguire to be dismissed when he body-checked King in front of the home dugout.

And while Leicester were unlucky to be denied an equaliser by Begovic's brilliance, they can only blame themselves for giving their hosts the chance to get so far ahead.

Trying to pull the game back was difficult enough even before Morgan's dismissal for a second bookable offence, and while their goals set nerves fluttering in the home support, they did not seriously threaten to snatch a point.
