Bournemouth Cook delighted to atone for Arsenal error with Liverpool triumph

AFC Bournemouth defender Steve Cook was thrilled he could contribute in a positive manner on Sunday.

The Cherries managed to come from behind to beat Liverpool 4-3 with Cook scoring a late leveller and then producing the shot that led to Nathan Ake's injury-time winner.

Cook was at fault for Arsenal's first goal when gifting Alexis Sanchez the opener in the 3-1 defeat last weekend so was delighted to have a say against the Reds this time around.

"It's nice for me because I made a mistake last week so I've been dreaming about having an impact on today and fortunately I have done so I'm delighted and it just goes to show how football can change and that's why everyone loves this game," he told the club's official website.

"The emotions at the end were very hard to describe. I can't stop smiling and I'm absolutely delighted for the lads. The response is unbelievable.

"We'll obviously enjoy today but when we get back training there will be one focus and that's Burnley."
