Watch again as Ritchie gazumps an already moribund Sunderland back line with a tee up on his chest, then a stinging left foot howitzer during Bouremouth 2-0 home win against the Black Cat’s.
MUST-SEE: Matthew Ritchie rockets a volley into the left corner to give #afcb a 2-0 lead #ForeverFaster #BPLonNBC http://t.co/Edg4F5BvQm
