3. Rob Elliot Has Game Of His Life To Stop Bournemouth From Scoring
Bournemouth should have won this relegation six-pointer at a canter. However, they hadn't bargained on Newcastle's then third choice keeper - and probable current first choice if his stellar run of form continues well into this year - having the game of his life. Somehow this game finished AFC Bournemouth 0-1 Rob Elliot - thanks, in part, to an early Ayoze Perez strike. Crucially, this lifted The Magpies above The Cherries and out of the bottom three for a brief spell. The Republic of Ireland international used every single part of his body to keep the ball out of the United net during this midday kick off, with his best save seeing his hip block a point blank Josh King header. It's fair to say that Elliot defied everyone's expectations here - and continues to do so to this day.
