LONDON (Reuters) -Liverpool came crashing down to earth as Bournemouth stunned Juergen Klopp's side with a 1-0 victory to move out of the Premier League's relegation zone on Saturday, while Manchester City beat Crystal Palace to stay on Arsenal's tail at the top.

Victory would have lifted Liverpool temporarily into fourth place but instead it was Philip Billing's goal that settled the contest in favour of Bournemouth as the south coast side avenged a 9-0 hammering at Anfield earlier this season.
