Bournemouth 2-1 Cheltenham
Bournemouth saw off Cheltenham to secure their first win of the season.
Cherries striker Steve Fletcher grabbed the quickest goal of the day after he met Callum Hart's left-wing cross with a right-footed shot after 67 seconds.
But Grant McCann's 30-yard shot bounced in front of keeper Gareth Stewart and went in off the post to equalise.
On-loan Leon Best steered home Steven Foley's cross to make it 2-1, but Steve Guinan hit the bar at the other end as the Robins pushed for a leveller.
