Ajani Burchall and his AFC Bournemouth Academy Under-18 teammates continued their fine start to the season with a commanding 5-1 win away at Yeovil Town.
Bournemouth got two goals apiece for Burchall and Jake Adams as they made a strong start and then iced the cake with two further late goals.
Burchall scored inside 20 minutes with a right-footed finish at the back post to get the scoring underway, Euan Pollock made it two following a one-on-one soon after from an Adams through ball.
Before the interval it was then three from a quickly-taken corner, Adams surging inside and whipping into the net via a slight deflection for a three-goal half-time lead.
A penalty was converted for Yeovil Town after 70 minutes - the first goal that Bournemouth have conceded in the league this season - giving the hosts hope before two late goals denied that and completed the scoring for the away side.
A Matt Burgess shot could only be parried, with Adams tapping home the rebound before Burchall scored his second thanks to a fine individual effort with two minutes to go. The winger skipped past a number of challenges and finished low, hard, and in at the near post.
