Ryan Christie scored a hat-trick to give Marco Rose his first win as Bournemouth manager as the Cherries swept aside Sky Bet Championship side Lincoln 4-0.<\/p>\n

The Scotland international starred for the hosts with goals in the seventh, 69th and 88th minutes for his second career hat-trick, with Rayan stepping off the bench to wrap up the Carabao Cup third-round victory in stoppage time.<\/p>\n

Rose made eight changes, including handing a debut to on-loan Juventus goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio and a first start for Uruguayan striker Alvaro Rodriguez.<\/p>\n

Only Ryley Towler kept his place from Lincoln’s 1-1 draw at home to Southampton as the two sides met for the first time since 2010 when they were both in League Two.<\/p>\n

Lincoln started brightly, but it was Bournemouth who opened the scoring after just seven minutes when Christie finished neatly at the near post from Ben Gannon-Doak’s cross.<\/p>\n

The lively Gannon-Doak then saw his effort blocked by Towler after cutting in from the left wing and firing a right-footed shot.<\/p>\n

Di Gregorio was called into action for the first time after 22 minutes, keeping out Dan Oyegoke’s flick before Towler blazed over from the rebound.<\/p>\n

Lincoln goalkeeper Joe Gauci made a smart save to deny Bafode Diakite after the defender had headed a long throw goalwards.<\/p>\n

James Hill then fired over from distance as Bournemouth went hunting for a second goal. Six minutes before half-time Cherries left-back Julio Soler curled wide from 25 yards after David Brooks’ corner had been only half cleared.<\/p>\n

Hill also saw a shot from the edge of the penalty area deflected behind for a corner, before Christie’s curling 20-yard effort was palmed away by Gauci with the final kick of the first half.<\/p>\n

Rose will be frustrated to have picked up just two points from his first three Premier League games after conceding late goals against Manchester City, Everton and Newcastle.<\/p>\n

His side almost doubled their lead five minutes into the second half when Gannon-Doak’s curling effort glanced off the head of Rodriguez and flew just over the crossbar.<\/p>\n

Scotland international Gannon-Doak then ballooned another long-range effort over in the 55th minute.<\/p>\n

Hill came close to picking out the top corner with a 25-yard piledriver which smacked against the angle of post and crossbar.<\/p>\n

Rodriguez had another good chance to open his Bournemouth account moments later, but slipped as he lined up a shot from the edge of the box and sent it high into the stands.<\/p>\n

The \u00a321m signing later headed inches wide from Hill’s cross as he endured a frustrating full debut.<\/p>\n

Christie showed Rodriguez the route to goal 21 minutes from time by heading in Brooks’ corner at the far post.<\/p>\n

The Scotland midfielder completed his treble in the 88th minute with a deflected shot from 14 yards out after being teed up by Diakite.<\/p>\n

Rayan made it 4-0 in stoppage time with a tidy finish from the corner of the six-yard box.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
