Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers paid to tribute to Bournemouth's players after victory in the FA Cup at Goldsands Stadium.
Rodgers was full of praise for Cherries manager Eddie Howe afterwards.
"When you have a team that want to play football they are the most courageous players on the field," said Rodgers.
"It is easy to coach a team to sit back, not want the ball and defend and then just wait for a hump up the pitch.
The courage that the Bournemouth players showed today was fantastic - they have got better, I have watched them as the season has gone on.
"It is coaches like Eddie Howe who will take the game forward in this country because they believe in a way of working and they have a philosophy.
"Bournemouth are a very good side and I give credit to them first of all. Eddie is similar to myself in terms of the philosophy of football.
"It is not easy when you're a young manager to stick your head out to get your teams to play and pass the ball but he certainly does that."
