Bournemouth boss Marco Rose was denied a first Premier League win after a calamitous mistake by goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic allowed Brentford to claim a 2-2 draw at the Vitality Stadium.

The Cherries were on course for a top-flight victory at the fourth time of asking under German coach Rose when goals from Justin Kluivert and Marcus Tavernier overturned Kevin Schade's opener.

But Schade lobbed his second of the afternoon into an unguarded net to maintain the Bees' unbeaten start following a dreadful pass from Petrovic.

It was the fourth time in as many league matches since the summer appointment of Rose that Bournemouth have dropped points from a winning position.

In addition to Petrovic's howler, defender António Silva and winger Rayan were guilty of shocking misses on another frustrating day for the south-coast club, while substitute Ben Gannon-Doak hit the woodwork in stoppage time.

Brentford move on to six points from a possible 12 following a third consecutive draw, while Bournemouth have just three after failing to capitalise on another largely positive performance.
