Ghana international Antoine Semenyo marked his return from injury for AFC Bournemouth in their Premier League defeat to Sunderland on Saturday.
Semenyo returned to Bournemouth injured, missing two games for club and country.
He was not in action when Ghana fell short to South Korea in an international friendly, while missing Bournemouth’s 2-2 draw against West Ham United last weekend.
On his return to action, the Black Stars forward delivered a modest performance as the Cherries succumbed to a 3-2 away defeat to Sunderland. Semenyo lasted the entire duration of the match but could not salvage his outfit from defeat at the Stadium of Light.
Amine Adli and Tyler Adams gave the Cherries a two-goal lead in the 7th and 15th-minutes before Enzo Le Fee converted from the spot to reduce the deficit for the hosts.
Putting on a stellar performance, the home team staged a massive comeback to secure victory over Bournemouth, with Brobbey emerging as the hero of the match.
Burkina Faso international Bertrand Traore leveled the score for Sunderland in the 46th-minute. However, it was the Dutch-Ghanaian attacker who rose to the occasion, scoring the decisive goal to snatch maximum points for Sunderland.
Semenyo has been in a scintillating form for Bournemouth this season, scoring six goals and delivering three assists in 12 appearances in the Premier League.
His impressive start to the 2025/26 league season earned him the Player of the Month and Goal of the Month awards for August at Bournemouth.
