Justin Kluivert revelled in Bournemouth's "beautiful" 4-0 victory over Manchester United on Sunday, with the Cherries making it back-to-back wins at Old Trafford. 

Kluivert scored from the penalty spot, with Dean Huijsen and Antoine Semenyo scoring either side of his spot-kick to move Andoni Iraola's side within three points of the top four.

The Dutchman continued his fine scoring form for the Cherries, with his 61st-minute strike his sixth goal of the season, and his first since a hat-trick of penalties against Wolves.

Bournemouth became just the second team to win consecutive league away games against United by 3+ goals (both 3-0), after Burnley in 1961 (4-1) and 1962 (5-2).

The Cherries have also now won their last three away games in the league, their most since a four-match run in December 2023, which included a victory over the Red Devils.

But they had to work for their triumph, generating an expected goals (xG) tally of just 1.63 from their 10 attempts compared to United's 2.28 from their 23 efforts. 

Bournemouth are seemingly riding the crest of a wave under Iraola, sitting fifth in the Premier League table, and Kluivert could not hide his excitement after the full-time whistle. 

"It's a massive win," Kluivert told Sky Sports. "Back-to-back wins at this beautiful stadium is amazing. It's unreal.

"We've been working hard, and building on the same plan. It's amazing with the coach, and with the players we can do something beautiful, as you saw today.

"Our philosophy, how we want to play, is full pressure, a lot of energy in the games. That's why we score in every game. That's just the power of us.

"We just try to keep cruising like this. Up the Cherries, happy Christmas!"
