Bournemouth 1-3 Southend
Freddy Eastwood's brace helped Southend beat Bournemouth and progress to the second round of the Carling Cup.
Mar Gower put the Shrimpers ahead with a thumping shot after a fine solo run.

Stephen Cook almost levelled for the Cherries before half-time but Steve Fletcher did make it 1-1 after the restart with a thumping volley.

However Eastwood fired Southend back in front from the spot after Callum Hart's handball and then sealed his side's win after outpacing Bournemouth's defence.
