As Peterborough United were failing to score in a 4-0 home reverse at the hands of Middlesbrough, Siriki Dembele reminded them of the talent they let go with a terrific goal for Bournemouth yesterday (April 2).

Dembele came on as a second-half substitute against Bristol City at the Vitality Stadium and scored the killer third goal in a 3-2 win for the promotion-chasers. It was a superb goal as well with a well-placed shot following a brilliant dribble.

Posh have collected just six points from 12 Championship matches since Dembele was sold for a reported £1 million fee.
