19-Year-Old

Premier
Bags two in first EPL start
Kroupi scored two goals to go with two shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 3-3 draw against Crystal Palace.
ANALYSIS
Kroupi got his first EPL start Saturday replacing the injured Evanilson as the Cherries lead striker. He delivered a standout performance, bagging a brace of goals before half‑time. The 19-year-old is in sharp form, he scored twice for the French U21 team last week and found the net in his last Cherries appearance at the end of September. It is unlikely he will replace Evanilson as a regular starter but will likely join matches frequently from the bench with impactful outcomes.
