Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola admits Newcastle United style suited them.

The Cherries won 2-0 yesterday thanks to a double from Dominic Solanke.

"To make them play uncomfortable and under pressure.

"Both teams play quite open transition games with high rhythm. For us, they are very good, but they play in a style that suits us."
