Enzo Fernandez missed the best opportunity of a goalless second period.
Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo, reportedly close to a big-money transfer, was at the heart of the action, providing two assists and conceding a penalty in a dramatic 2-2 stalemate against Chelsea.
Despite being on the verge of a lucrative switch, the 25-year-old attacker started for his club. His distinctive long throw-ins proved a potent weapon, leading to goals for teammates David Brooks and Justin Kluivert.
Brooks opened the scoring just six minutes in, converting from close quarters after a dangerous long throw from Semenyo.
The home side equalized and went ahead following a foul by Semenyo on Estevao in the box. Referee Sam Barrott pointed to the spot after consulting the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) monitor.
Cole Palmer stepped up and converted the penalty, finding the corner despite the goalkeeper guessing correctly. Enzo Fernandez then extended Chelsea's lead, firing a superb shot into the top corner after 23 minutes.
Bournemouth hit back almost immediately, as another Semenyo long throw was turned in by Justin Kluivert from close range just four minutes later.
The visitors finished the first period on top, forcing Sanchez into several saves from their 14 first-half efforts.
At halftime, Chelsea's manager made two changes, introducing captain Reece James and Pedro Neto for Josh Acheampong and Alejandro Garnacho.
Early in the second half, a handball appeal against Malo Gusto was dismissed by the VAR official. Former Chelsea goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic then produced an excellent save to deny Estevao from distance.
Fernandez had the clearest opportunity to win it late on, but he skied his effort from a promising position inside the penalty area.
Moments earlier, Palmer was substituted for Joao Pedro, a change that was met with disapproval from some home supporters. Although they enjoyed more possession late on, the hosts were unable to craft a winning goal.
Deep into added time, Unal connected with an Adli cross but sent his volley over the bar from a central position.
This draw extends Chelsea's poor run to only one win in their previous seven Premier League matches. Bournemouth's winless streak now stretches to ten matches across all competitions.
