Goals from substitutes Enes Ünal and Dango Ouattara powered Bournemouth to a dramatic 2-1 comeback victory on Sunday and denied relegation-threatened Ipswich Town their first home Premier League victory of the season.
Bournemouth move up to eighth in the standings on 24 points, while Ipswich have nine points from 15 games and sit in 18th place, four points adrift of the safety zone.
In a testy and physical opening spell, Ipswich had the better chances and took the lead in the 21st minute when Cameron Burgess deftly set up Conor Chaplin, who sidefooted home the ball from the edge of the area.
Bournemouth improved gradually and had numerous opportunities to score, with their pressure finally telling late in the match as Unal headed home to level in the 87th minute, before Ouattara struck the winner in the fifth minute of stoppage time.
