Scott and Antony sent off in pre-season friendly
Bournemouth's pre-season friendly against Real Betis ended in a 2-2 draw [Getty Images] Bournemouth's Alex Scott and Real Betis' Antony were sent off after a confrontation during a friendly match in Seville, which ended 2-2. The flashpoint came just before half-time after Betis' Nelson Deossa kicked the ball at Bafode Diakite after being fouled by the Cherries' defender. It sparked a brawl between players from both sides with former Manchester United winger Antony and midfielder Scott pushing each other before they were both shown a red card by the referee. Marcus Tavernier had given Bournemouth the lead in the 41st minute with Cucho Hernandez equalising for Betis in the 57th minute. Evanilson put Bournemouth back in front, before Pablo Fornals levelled again for the La Liga side late on. The Cherries' final pre-season friendly is against German side Mainz on 15 August (14:30 BST) before they begin their Premier League campaign against Manchester City on 23 August.
