Bournemouth defeated Manchester City 2-1 at the Vitality Stadium to condemn Pep Guardiola's men to their first defeat of the season.
Bournemouth ended a run of 14 successive top-flight defeats against Manchester City, and it was special as they came away with all three points.
This had become the longest-running one-sided fixture in league history and Bournemouth were determined to change that, starting the game firmly on the front foot.
The Cherries struck early, with Antoine Semenyo netting in the 10th minute after Milos Kerkez's precise pass.
City struggled to respond or create any meaningful chances, despite dominating possession.
At halftime, the champions hadn't mustered a single shot on target, and Erling Haaland was nursing a knock.
Bournemouth doubled their lead on the hour mark, with Evanilson scoring his second goal in two games after Kerkez's perfect cross.
The Cherries almost made it 3-0 when Marcus Tavernier's effort hit the post, and Adam Smith incredibly missed the rebound.
City finally sparked to life with 10 minutes left, as Joško Gvardiol headed home İlkay Gündoğan's cross. The pressure intensified, but Bournemouth held firm through six minutes of stoppage time to secure a famous win.
This upset hands Liverpool the title initiative, leaving Guardiola's men reeling from their first league defeat in 33 matches.
