Perhaps Ange Postecoglou is in the turn because Tottenham emerged with a point of a game that they should really have lost.
Some credit is due to the spirit of the struggle, but Bournemouth was two goals up and the Spurs slid to another defeat when Pape Matar Sarr withdrew them with a Mishit cross that slipped into the post.
The equalizer was a penalty in the 84th minute, won and scored by Heung-Min son, who could not wait to fall when Kepa Arrizabalaga left his goal.
It was a bad decision by Bournemouth goalkeeper, a wrong trial to think that he could beat Son a pass from James Maddison, and cost him the victory of his team.
For the Spurs, a point recently to increase its position in the Premier League. They have taken only six points of their last 10 games at home, but after the disappointment of the defeat in Europe, it offers a small hope of an increase with the key players that return.
The Spurs had a horrible start and were lucky to not be a goal after 18 seconds. Cristian Romero, under no pressure, was a pass to Evanilson, who was clean in the goal but could not produce an end with enough blow to overcome Guglielmo Vicario.
Romero was one of the six changes made by Postecoglou to the team he lost to Az in Alkmaar on Thursday, the captain the day and his name made the greatest joy when the teams were announced before the start.
But half of Argentina's center began a lot like someone with only 15 minutes of competitive football in the last four months while trying to pass the ball out of defense. He rolled Yves Bissouma in trouble, in the center of the field. The poor touch of Bissouma did not help, and Ryan Christie pounced to win the ball and free Patrick Kluivert.
For the second time in the first four minutes, Vicar faced one by one. This time he was saved with his legs and stood up again to avoid a header from Tavernier when Bournemouth showed another cross.
Romero and Bissouma were not the only blank players guilty of errors in possession, but suffered in the midst of an opening whirlwind by visitors.
Without a game in the middle of the week, Iraola's team was more acute, bristling with energy and aggression, happy to let the spurs have the ball and spring traps.
Tottenham survived early pressure and became the game, but the more they ventured forward, the more vulnerable were Bournemouth's counterattack.
The opening goal occurred when Milos Kerkez intercepted a careless walk by Pedro Porro and left defense.
Kerkez brought the ball at speed through the midline and delivered a spectacular cross in the width race to the left, which caused chaos in the defense of the Spurs.
He diverted and immersed himself, could not be reached by Kevin Danso, who tried to clarify and seemed to enter Spence, who lost his man, Tavernier, who slipped into the back post to become the half volley.
At halftime, the Spurs were booed by the tunnel where Postecoglou made two changes, sending Son and Lucas Bergvall.
Immediately, the local team had more effervescence in the future, but remained fragile in the back.
Justin Kluivert found the network at the end of another radical counterattack just to find the discarded goal for the outside of Antoine Semenyo as the movement advanced.
They are saw a registered trademark that deviated on a post before the second of Bournemouth, scored by Evanilson with an ordered meter about the immersion of Vicar after another strong run on the left by Kerkez and a pass disguised as Kluivert.
Bergvall also hit a low shot in a form after 25 yards and Sarr reduced the deficit with what seemed to be a Mishit cross from the right that moved over Kepa Arrizabalaga and towards the network from the distant post.
There was some irony in the fact that the goal finally came from someone who did not try to score, but at least the spurs were back in the contest, and could have changed in any way in a frantic period.
Evanilson almost punished Vicar for a poor touch and Kluivert reached a position, but they were the one who snatched a point from the place.
