Gary Hooper has cancelled out Matt Ritchie's opener as Bournemouth and Norwich City go into the break with the score at 1-1 in their Championship clash this afternoon.

Bournemouth's Harry Arter found Marc Pugh on the left early on and the winger crossed low into the area, but Jonny Howson was there to clear.

At the other end, Hooper flicked on a Nathan Redmond cross to Bradley Johnson, who nodded over the bar.

Alexander Tettey then drove through the middle and passed to Redmond, who cut inside before seeing his shot blocked by Steve Cook.

Despite the away side's chances it was Bournemouth who went in front when Ritchie slotted home from Pugh's cross with a first-time finish.

In response, Cameron Jerome showed clever feet and got a shot away from a tight angle, which Artur Boruc did well to parry.

Hooper was eventually the one to draw the two sides level when he slammed home his fifth goal of the season from close range after Bournemouth failed to clear from a corner.
