Ireland must target a first Test win over New Zealand in the two games in November after the narrow series defeat in South Africa, says Iain Henderson.

The Springboks edged out the Irish 19-13 in Port Elizabeth on Saturday to compete a 2-1 series win after losing the opener in Cape Town.
"No Irish team has ever beaten the All Blacks and I don't see any reason why we can't," said Henderson.
"We've got two opportunities to go and do it."
The Irish face the All Blacks in Chicago on 5 November before Steve Hansen's side play in Dublin two weeks later.
Henderson, who started all three Tests in South Africa, says the Irish will go into both games full of belief after earning a first away win over the Springboks.
"One thing we can take from this is that as a side, even being a young side, we've made history once on this tour and there's no reason why we can't do it again," he said.
However, Henderson admitted the huge sense of disappointment in Joe Schmidt's Ireland squad at failure to take a glorious opportunity to earn an historic series win in South Africa.
Having won the opening game despite CJ Stander's red card, the Irish let a 16-point lead slip in the second Test and spurned a couple of try-scoring opportunities in the decider and finished the game hammering on the Springbok line.
"It's a massive shame," Henderson admitted.
"Nobody goes out there believing that we can't win, we went out there and gave it everything."
The Irish put it up to the South Africans despite being without injured big-name performers such as Johnny Sexton, Sean O'Brien, Rob Kearney, Tommy Bowe and Simon Zebo.
As Schmidt handed out debuts to Tiernan O'Halloran, Quinn Roux, Sean Reidy and Matt Healy, the Irish used all 32 members of the squad during the series and Henderson believes the future of the team is bright.
"There are so many class players coming through. It's good to see a strong representation from Connacht, Matt Healy and Tiernan both doing really, really well. Kieran Marmion's sitting there too," added Henderson.


Olivier Award-nominated actress Amy Lennox has joined the cast of David Bowie's musical Lazarus as it moves from New York to London.

Lennox's role in the stage version of Kinky Boots earned her an Olivier nomination for best supporting actress in a musical earlier this year.
Lazarus will run at Kings Cross Theatre from 25 October to 22 January 2017.
Bowie co-wrote the show with Irish playwright Enda Walsh, the award-winning writer of Once.
Inspired by the book The Man Who Fell To Earth, the show premiered last November at New York Theatre Workshop, just a few weeks before Bowie's death.
Most of the main cast have come from New York to London, but Amy Lennox will replace Cristin Milioti as Elly.
Elly is the assistant to Newton, the human-looking alien played by Bowie in the 1976 film The Man Who Fell To Earth and now played on stage by Michael C Hall.
Other new additions to the London cast include Jamie Muscato, Gabrielle Brooks, Sydnie Christmas, Richard Hansell, Maimuna Memon, Tom Parsons and Julie Yammanee.
When it opened in New York, The Guardian described Lazarus as "unapologetically weird... and oddly intriguing".
Rolling Stone praised the show as a "surrealistic tour de force."

At least five people have been killed in a second day of violence related to caste rights in the northern Indian state of Haryana, police say.

Protesters in the towns of Rohtak and Jind set fire to police vehicles, public buildings and buses.
The demonstrators are mostly from the Jat community who are unhappy about India's caste quota system.
They say it puts them at a disadvantage in government jobs and at state-run educational institutes.
The Jats are currently listed as upper caste but the demonstrators want job quotas similar to those granted to lower castes.
Protesters again went on the rampage on Saturday despite a curfew and the deployment of the army which is reported to have opened fire on them in the Rohtak and Jhajjar districts.
Demonstrations by Jats were also reported to have taken place in Delhi, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu and Kashmir. Overland transport links to Haryana have been brought to a halt by the protests.
The government of Haryana has meanwhile been urged by the central government to initiate talks with Jat leaders, NDTV reported.
Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar has already said that the government is ready to agree to the demands of the protesters "within the ambit of the constitution".
Mr Khattar has urged the protesters to desist and appealed to the government to provide more troops in order to restore order.
Opposition parties have called for Mr Khattar's government to be sacked by the central government and for presidential rule to be imposed on the state.
On Friday protesters in Rohtak hurled rocks at security forces, while blocking traffic, attacking vehicles and attempting to set the finance minister's home on fire.


June Osborne has been enthroned as the first female Bishop of Llandaff at a ceremony in Cardiff on Saturday.

Bishop Osborne, who was consecrated as the 72nd Bishop of Llandaff last week, took her throne at Llandaff Cathedral.
As part of an ancient tradition, she had to request permission to enter the cathedral, knocking three times with her staff on its west door.
Bishop Osborne, replacing Dr Barry Morgan, was then welcomed inside by the Dean of Llandaff, Gerwyn Capon.
"It is a very great privilege to become Bishop of Llandaff, an ancient post with many noble predecessors," she said.
"I look forward enormously to taking up this new ministry."
Bishop Osborne was previously Dean of Salisbury for 13 years, where she became the first female dean of a medieval cathedral.
She is the Church in Wales' second female bishop appointment after Canon Joanna Penberthy was consecrated as Bishop of St Davids in January.
"We are delighted to welcome our new Bishop June to the cathedral," said Dean Capon.
"Bishop June's enthronement begins a new chapter in the life of the church in this diocese."
The selection process for the Bishop of Llandaff became mired in controversy, with the Church in Wales being accused of homophobia.
It "strongly denied" Dr Jeffrey John's claim that he said he was rejected because he was gay.
The Bench of Bishops appointed Bishop Osborne after the initial process failed to select a candidate..


An anti-piracy update for the Oculus virtual reality platform has been cracked within a day of release.

The update lets games verify that they were legitimately purchased and are running on an approved Oculus device.
It also breaks an unofficial patch called Revive that lets Oculus-only games run on rival devices.
But Revive's creator found he could disable digital rights management (DRM) in Oculus titles completely to keep the patch working.
That also stops software from verifying it has been legally purchased, paving the way for pirates to copy Oculus games.
"DRM as a means to prevent piracy is rather futile," said Ernesto Van der Sar, founder of news website TorrentFreak.
"If there's a demand to use a product or access a service, people will often find a way around DRM and other technological blockades.
"History has shown many examples of how it mostly inconveniences legitimate customers."
Facebook-owned Oculus has invested in exclusive software titles to encourage people to buy its virtual reality headset over competing devices.
The Revive patch, created by Libre VR, translated some of the functions of Oculus games into the OpenVR language, which is compatible with HTC's Vive and other headsets.
In December 2015, the company's founder Palmer Luckey said he did not mind if gamers did this.
"If customers buy a game from us, I don't care if they mod it to run on whatever they want," he wrote on online community Reddit.
He added that his goal was "not to profit by locking people to only our hardware".
The update to the Oculus operating system, released on Friday, introduced a new "platform integrity check" that let software identify whether an Oculus-approved headset was being used.
The developer of Libre VR responded with a new patch that bypassed DRM checks in some games completely. But that not only prevented software from checking whether it was being run on an Oculus headset, but also whether it had been legally purchased.
"This is my first success at bypassing the DRM, I really didn't want to go down that path," said the developer.
He told online technology magazine Motherboard: "By disabling the ownership check the game can no longer determine whether you legitimately own the game.
"I still do not support piracy - do not use this library for pirated copies."
Oculus has previously said people should not expect hacked games to work "indefinitely".
"Regular software updates to games, apps and our platform are likely to break hacked software," the company told technology news website Ars Technica in April.
Many gaming companies including Sony and Microsoft protect their software with some form of DRM, but Ernesto told the BBC it was not a surprise the Oculus update had been cracked so quickly.
"Oculus should focus on providing a superior platform and the best games instead of focusing on piracy at this point," he said.
"It's impossible to defeat piracy completely, but lessons from the movie and music industry show that providing great legal options work better than anti-piracy measures."


Exam pressures and physical health problems, like acne, are major contributory factors in the suicides of young people, according to research.

Experts at the University of Manchester also found bullying and family bereavement were linked to suicides.
They investigated the suicides of 130 people under 20 in England between January 2014 and April 2015.
In February, figures published by the Office for National Statistics revealed an increase in youth suicides.
There were 201 people aged between 10 and 19 who killed themselves in 2014 in the UK - up from 179 in 2013.
It comes as separate Office for National Statistics figures, published this week, suggested student suicides have risen to their highest level since at least 2007.
Suicide is the biggest killer of people under the age of 35 in the UK.
However, the research - by the University of Manchester's National Confidential Inquiry into Suicide and Homicide by People with Mental Illness - is the first time experts have studied the contributory factors on this scale.
Their findings showed:
The study also found that 23% had used the internet in relation to suicide - including searching for methods or posting suicidal thoughts.
Eleni Delacour has depression and borderline personality disorder.  But the main reason the 22-year-old has attempted suicide on 14 occasions is bullying.
"I got bullied as long as I can remember - both emotional and physical bullying," she says.
"I've had my tendon snapped, my nose broken twice, my mind broken a hundred times."
Her first suicide attempt was when she was 10. "When enough people tell you something about yourself that's bad, you start to think it too," she says.
"You get told you're worthless to the point you think you're worthless.  And then you don't want to feel it anymore and the only way you can stop it is to end it all. "
Speaking about the report's findings, lead researcher Professor Louis Appleby said: "There are often family problems such as drug misuse or domestic violence and more recent stresses such as bullying or bereavement, leading to a 'final straw' factor such as an exam or relationship breakdown."
"I think the numbers are the tip of the iceberg," says Ged Flynn, chief executive of Papyrus, an anti-suicide charity.
Its support service, Hopeline UK, has seen a large rise in contacts from young people and parents in recent years, quadrupling since 2013.
It says that most of the calls, texts and emails it receives relate to exam stresses.
"I think the pressure on young people in increasing," says Mr Flynn. "Peer pressure - from family, teachers and friends - has always been there, but it does seem to be increasing.
"And I think the need to be liked, the need to be popular, the need to be happy, is fairly universal.  And it's unrealistic."
Morgan Falconer was known as Tigger - a bright, enthusiastic, inquisitive, tactile boy.  With no warning however, the 15-year-old killed himself last May.
He had spoken to his friends about feeling pressure over his upcoming GCSE exams but his father Stuart says the family will never know what drove him to end his own life.
"I can't - hand on heart - say anything was a concern," says Stuart.  "He should be here today, of that I have absolutely no doubt.
"It was a consequence of things that built up in his brain, which led him to making a catastrophic decision that couldn't be turned back.
"If he'd known what he'd left behind, he wouldn't have done it.  If he'd seen the outpouring of grief at his funeral, he wouldn't have done it."
His father has now set up a charity The Ollie Foundation to give teachers suicide awareness training.


The Football Association is investigating alleged racist abuse towards Wycombe Wanderers striker Adebayo Akinfenwa during his side's match at Cambridge United on Saturday.

The FA has contacted Akinfenwa and Cambridge for their observations of events during the League Two match.
Cambridgeshire Police previously confirmed its officers are also investigating the alleged incident.
Wycombe won Saturday's game 2-1 through a 95th-minute goal from Aaron Pierre.
Akinfenwa, 34, reported the alleged incident to referee Trevor Kettle, who included it in his report and the clubs are working together to investigate and will take "appropriate action" against those involved.


Budweiser owner AB InBev has raised its takeover offer for rival SABMiller after a fall in the pound made its original offer less attractive.

The offer was raised by £1 a share to £45 a share, valuing SABMiller at about £79bn, up from £70bn previously.
SABMiller said the two brewing firms had discussed the deal last week "in light of recent exchange rate volatility and market movements".
The pound has lost about 12% against the dollar since the UK referendum.
The deal, agreed last year, will create the world's largest beer firm, producing about 30% of the world's beer.
SABMiller, maker of Pilsner Urquell, said it would now consult with shareholders and that "a further announcement will be made thereafter".
AB InBev, which also counts Stella Artois and Corona amongst its brands, said this latest offer was final.
The increased offer comes after major investors in SABMiller argued the fall in sterling made their part in the deal worth less.
The way in which the deal is structured means that investors can receive either a cash component or a share of the new company - a partial share agreement (PSA) as it is known. The share agreement was designed specifically for SAB's two biggest shareholders Altria and Bevco, who wanted to keep a stake in the new company.
But since last November, when the merger was agreed, the cash value is now worth less in dollar terms, while the shares are now worth more.
Aberdeen Asset Management, an SABMiller shareholder, said the latest revision was still not good enough.
"The revised deal remains unacceptable as it both undervalues the company and continues to favour SABMiller's two major shareholders," it said in a statement.
AB InBev would like the deal to be completed by the end of this year. It has cleared most regulatory hurdles and is just waiting for final approval from China.


The UK economy will grow more slowly in the next five years than had been expected in November, the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) has said.

The OBR had previously forecast that the economy would grow 2.4% this year, but is now predicting a rate of 2.0%.
Chancellor George Osborne said the cuts had been due to a reduction in the OBR's forecasts of productivity.
The amount the government is expected to have to borrow this year has fallen, but it has gone up for the next three.
However, the chancellor confirmed that he was still on-track to meet his target of having a budget surplus by 2019-20.
Under the OBR's new forecast, the estimate for economic growth in 2017 has been cut to 2.2% from 2.5%, and to 2.1% from 2.4% in 2018. Growth in both 2019 and 2020 is now estimated at 2.1% compared with the previous forecast of 2.3%.
The OBR also said the cut to growth forecasts was due to less growth being expected elsewhere in the world.
"In the short time since our November forecast, economic developments have disappointed and the outlook for the economy and the public finances looks materially weaker," it said.
At a news conference, OBR head Robert Chote said that productivity growth in the last three months of 2015 had been considerably worse than expected, wiping out gains made earlier in the year and making the OBR question whether UK productivity was likely to recover to pre-crisis levels.
"With the period of weak productivity growth post-crisis continuing to lengthen, we have placed more weight on that as a guide to future prospects - although this judgement remains highly uncertain," the OBR said.
The OBR unexpectedly reduced the amount it expects the government to borrow in the current financial year from £73.5bn to £72.2bn.
In the first 10 months of the financial year, the government has already borrowed £66.5bn, so many commentators predicted that the forecast would have to be raised.
The OBR said it had cut the forecast because it was expecting smaller contributions to the EU in the next two months because more of the 2016 contributions would be paid in the next financial year.
In addition, it predicted lower borrowing by housing associations, lower spending on tax credits and a smaller-than-expected take-up of married couples' tax allowance.
However, the OBR warned that the fall it expected "may not be reflected fully in the initial outturn data due in April".
It explained that this was because spending by local authorities tends to take longer to come into the Office for National Statistics, which is also not yet used to calculating figures for housing associations who have only recently been included in public sector debt figures.
The borrowing forecasts for the following three years have been increased considerably, although the OBR still expects the government to achieve a surplus in 2019-20 and 2020-21, in line with its supplementary target on the deficit.
Mr Chote said that if no measures had been taken in this Budget then the government would have had to borrow £3bn in 2019-20, but he added that Mr Osborne had met "the letter of the mandate" by "shuffling" receipts into that year and spending out.
On the total amount of government debt (as opposed to the amount borrowed in a single year) the chancellor admitted that the figure as a proportion of GDP would be higher than it was last year as a result of lower GDP, but that the total amount owed would actually be £9bn lower.
So, in the current financial year, total debt is expected to be 83.7% of GDP, up from 83.3% in 2014-15.
Mr Chote referred back to the £27bn that the chancellor was given by changes to the borrowing forecasts in November. He said that in this Budget, there would be £56.3bn less to spend for much the same reason.
"The sofa swallowed £2 this time for every £1 it yielded last time," he commented.
He also said that excessive optimism about the amount of money that could be saved by welfare changes was an ongoing problem.
The OBR says the government is going to breach its own welfare cap in every remaining year of this Parliament.
Forecasts by the OBR in November indicated that spending on benefits would be within the cap towards the end of the Parliament.
But their updated analysis today says spending will "exceed the permitted amount in every year, and by a larger margin than in November."
The additional spending is mainly caused by more people than expected being eligible for disability benefits.
The predicted increase comes despite changes to one disability benefit, Personal Independence Payment (PIP), announced last week.  The tighter rules are expected to see 290,000 fewer people being eligible for PIP with a further 80,000 getting a lower award.  The OBR estimate the measure will save £1.3bn in 2019-20 and 2020-21.
Despite the increased costs, by 2020-21, the percentage of GDP spend on welfare will be at its lowest level in 30 years according to the OBR.


Drivers are being warned of delays as work to upgrade a flood-prone road in Cumbria gets under way.

Temporary traffic lights are in place on the A590, east of Lindal-in-Furness near Ulverston later until 06:00 BST on Monday and for the next three weekends.
Highways England said the road was vulnerable because of surface "dip" and engineers were working on a more "permanent solution".
New drains and gullies are being installed, a spokesman said.


A woman has died after a recycling lorry and a car crashed on the A40 in Carmarthenshire.

Dyfed-Powys Police was called to the incident between Manordeilo and Llandeilo at about 10:30 BST on Thursday.
The driver of the Ford Fiesta died and her family and the coroner have been informed.
A 28-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of causing death by careless or inconsiderate driving.
The road remains closed while police carry out their investigations.


Thousands of child refugees are waiting in Greece near to the border with Macedonia.

6 March 2016 Last updated at 12:20 GMT
Lots of them have fled their home countries, such as Syria and Iraq, because of wars there.
Many of them are hoping to reach other European countries like Germany.
However, the authorities in control of the border in Greece are only allowing a small number of people to cross over each day.
This means lots of people are left stranded there with very little belongings and food.
BBC reporter Gavin Lee is at the border and sent us this report.


A Cheshire hospital is expecting to suffer a £15m budget shortfall which amounts to "one of the biggest challenges in its recent history".

Health watchdog Monitor has begun an investigation amid concerns about Warrington Hospital's finances.
Chief executive Mel Pickup has written to staff to explain the need to "find new ways to reduce our operating costs".
Auditors KPMG have also been brought in to help manage the hospital's budget.
Ms Pickup's letter, which has been seen by BBC News, refers to an "unprecedented affordability gap forecast for the national healthcare system" following rising costs.
It explains that even if "realistic savings" are made, the hospital expects to be operating at a deficit of £15m for the 2015-16 financial year.
The hospital, which has an A&E unit serving the wider area, has now "declared itself in a turnaround position", Ms Pickup said.
Her letter says managers will be speaking to staff about the situation over the coming weeks, but urges them to immediately begin "thinking about our personal commitment to bring about improvement".
The projected shortfall is also expected to be felt at the smaller Halton Hospital and the Cheshire and Merseyside Treatment Centre, which are also managed by Warrington and Halton Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
The trust said in a statement: "We have been very open and honest about our financial position with our staff and the public after what has been a challenging year.
"Business at the hospitals continues very much as usual but we do face a challenge that we need to meet.
"We are continuing to provide the very best care to our patients, recruiting to key posts and vacancies to reduce our temporary staffing costs and transforming the way some of our services work."


A school near Goole has partially shut after a group of 10 traveller caravans settled on its sports field.

Snaith School, an academy, is closed to its Year 7, 8 and 9 pupils after the group began arriving on Saturday.
In a letter to parents, head teacher Jean Pickerill said the school, on Pontefract Road, had "spoken with the [travellers'] family lead and... they are awaiting some vehicular repairs".
The health and safety of pupils was "of paramount importance", the school said.
Live coverage of this and other East Yorkshire stories.
The letter was published on the school's website on Sunday.
In it, Mrs Pickerill wrote: "We have carried out a school risk assessment on site and have spoken with the family lead and they have assured us that they will be leaving school premises on Tuesday..."
Year 10 and 11 students have been advised to "attend school as normal".
She said: "I know that these arrangements will cause a significant inconvenience for parents/carers and for this I can only apologise, but the safeguarding of the pupils on site is of paramount importance."
In a statement, the school said: "We were informed that members of the traveller community were on the school field on Saturday evening.
"We have been working tirelessly since then with the local council, the local authority and the police to ensure that the school could partially open safely today.
"Year 10 and 11 are in the middle of important GCSE examinations and we would not wish to disrupt their preparation.
"The health and safety of the young people in our care is always of paramount importance to us."


Moussa Dembele scored a dramatic stoppage-time penalty as Celtic moved one round away from the Champions League group stage.

A first-half Leigh Griffiths penalty had put Celtic 1-0 ahead on the night, and 2-1 on aggregate, against Astana.
But their evening was thrown into chaos when Agim Ibraimi scored from 40 yards.
Extra time - and possibly penalties - seemed to beckon until Dembele won the penalty that he then converted for his first goal for the club.
That sent a raucous stadium into absolute raptures, while Astana of Kazakhstan were left stunned.
They finished with just nine men on the pitch, Igor Shitov sent-off for his costly foul on Dembele and Dmitri Shomko also walking for a crazed protest at the awarding of the penalty.
Celtic now go into Friday's draw for the final play-off round - leaving them just two games away from the Champions League group stage. Even if they lose that tie, they are guaranteed a place in the group stage of the Europa League.
There was no early evidence that this was going to become so tumultuous. Celtic swarmed all over Astana from the start, hustling and harrying the visitors and denying them the space and opportunities they enjoyed in the first leg last week.
There really was only one team in it, Celtic dominating possession and territory. They lost Patrick Roberts to injury after just half an hour, but their control continued, albeit without many chances being created.
There was late drama in the first half, though. Kieran Tierney was taken down in the box by Abzal Beysebekov and Griffiths swept in his penalty.
Having given Celtic the equaliser in Astana, Griffiths had now put his team 2-1 ahead on aggregate - and early in the second half he could have put the tie almost beyond doubt.
From a Stefan Johansen pass, Griffiths could only find the Astana side-netting. Soon after, a raking ball from Scott Brown put Griffiths through again. As he was about to shoot, he was snuffed out by a terrific tackle by Shitov.
Astana stirred at that point. They had the ball in the Celtic net when Roger Canas headed home after Gordon was caught in no-man's land, but it was chalked off for offside.
It was reminder that the tie was far from dead. Brendan Rodgers brought on defender Kolo Toure for his debut to shore things up with half an hour remaining. Toure had barely drawn breath as a Celtic player when Astana scored.
They were caught out through the middle by a long ball; Gordon forced to gallop out of his box to avert the danger with a clearing header. Instead, the ball was gathered by Ibraimi, who promptly struck the most sumptuous 40-yard shot over the stranded Celtic goalkeeper and into his net.
It wasn't the first time Ibraimi had sickened Celtic. He was a major force in the Maribor team that dumped them out of the Champions League under Ronny Deila and now he was threatening to repeat the torment.
Level at 2-2 on aggregate, Celtic Park gulped hard - and then roared thunderously - when Dembele's gorgeous trickery ended with him being upended in the box.
The new striker, just turned 20, stood over the penalty and then smashed it home, cool as you like amid the cauldron.

Dimitri Payet inspired a West Ham comeback to secure victory over Bournemouth which moves them to fifth in the Premier League.

Harry Arter had given the hosts the lead with a 25-yard strike.
But West Ham were much improved after the break thanks to the inventive Payet who deservedly scored a wonderful free-kick into the top left corner.
Payet then fed Enner Valencia for a tap-in before the Ecuadorian produced a stunning free-kick late on.
With Manchester United drawing 3-3 at Newcastle, the victory for Slaven Bilic's men - which seemed unlikely at the break - moves the Londoners to within a point of Tottenham in fourth.
The win, West Ham's first away from home in six games, also equals a club record eight-match unbeaten run in the Premier League.
Bournemouth deserved their lead at the break, but West Ham immediately played with more intensity in the second half and, such is their character, have now secured eight points in the league this season from losing positions, a haul only Leicester, with 10 points, can better.
The Hammers have had to cope with injures to key players in recent months - Andy Carroll being the latest injury worry after lasting just 12 minutes of this match - but Payet's recovery from an ankle problem is a much welcome boost for the Londoners.
Making his first Premier League start since 7 November, the Frenchman orchestrated West Ham's comeback. His free-kick was sublime, while it was his skill inside the box which created the second goal.
"It's scary how good he is. He's a top player. He's a player who makes all the others better," said manager Slaven Bilic after the match. "It's all about the team, but he's the player who is the most decisive for us."
Bournemouth's club-record signing Benik Afobe started for the Cherries following the striker's £9m move from Championship side Wolves.

Boss Eddie Howe had warned before the match not to expect too much from the new signing, to allow him to adjust to the pace of the Premier League.
But the former Arsenal striker should have done better with the chances created for him in the first half. With the hosts in command, the 22-year-old - who scored 23 goals in 48 games for Wolves - failed to hit the target with a header from six yards out and then messed up another scoring opportunity, hesitating to allow Adrian to gather on the floor after being put through by a wonderful Junior Stanislas pass.
Howe reflected on the positives, saying: "The pleasing thing was that he was at the end of those chances and we know with his quality he'll put them away."
Scoring has been a problem for the Cherries, which is why they have spent about £16m on strikers in the past week, with Lewis Grabban re-signing for about £7m on Monday. Howe also said further additions will be made to the squad this month.
And although Afobe should have been more clinical, Arter's strike did at least ensure Howe's side scored for the first time in four league matches.

A 14-year-old amateur boxer is fighting back after online trolls told her that boxing was "not for girls".

Sophie, from Yorkshire, says girls should not be put off the ring - or other hobbies - even if it means they receive abuse on social media.
"People inbox us and say, 'You shouldn't be doing it, it's a boy's sport'," she said.
Girls are more likely to be harassed on social media than boys, according to a recent survey of 11-18 year olds.
Sophie said that she and other girls in her boxing club had been bullied by social media trolls - people who leave upsetting and abusive messages online.
"It's purely because we're girls and 'should' be wearing make-up and stuff," she said. "People started bullying me over it because of the way I dress."
Sophie admitted she has "deleted quite a lot of photos off Facebook" when people left negative comments about her wearing tracksuits in and outside the boxing ring.
Nearly half of girls in the UK say they have experienced abuse online, according to a study of 1,002 people aged 11 to 18.
This could be an upsetting message from a stranger, a bullying comment from a social media "friend", or an image being shared without their consent.
Children's charity Plan International UK, which commissioned the survey, found that 48% of girls and 40% of boys had been harassed online.
Sophie said girls get "treated a lot differently on social media than lads".
"People don't like that because I do wear quite a lot of boys trackies and tops and stuff like that," she said. Speaking of her local boxing club, she added: "We post quite a lot of our photos on Facebook."
The recent success of Olympic champion boxer Nicola Adams and has in part helped shift attitudes towards girls and women boxing.
"Us girls we do quite a lot of boxing," Sophie said. "More of us like to push ourselves to the limit that we can."
But 15-year-old Ambrin, from London, says girls are often left to "protect themselves" against social media bullies.
She says she's modified her behaviour to try to avoid online abuse.
"I was always very careful if I was going to share a political opinion, I would do it under an account that didn't have my name," she said.
She uses Snapchat and used to use Instagram - but stopped after someone in her school also set up an account threatening to post nude pictures of girls in her year.
"The school couldn't really do much about it because they didn't know who was posting them," she said.
Tanya Barron, Plan International UK's chief executive, said girls risked "losing their voices" if they avoided posting pictures or comments because of fear of being bullied.
The survey found that 73% of girls and 59% of boys had chosen not to post pictures or comments for this reason.
"Girls are self-censoring on social media for fear of backlash from others," Ms Barron said.
She says children should be allowed to express themselves - whether that is through their sport, or because they have an opinion - without feeling threatened.
"We're calling on every one to stand up for girls online, calling out abuse when we see it and encouraging a space in which girls can find their voice," she said.
Advice from Childline's counsellors:


Palestinian officials have said they are planning to sue Britain over the 1917 Balfour Declaration that laid out a vision for a Jewish homeland in Palestine.

Palestinian FM Riad Malki said the document led to mass Jewish immigration to British Mandate Palestine "at the expense of our Palestinian people".
Mr Malki said the lawsuit would be filed in an international court.
Israel declared its independence in 1948 after the UK mandate expired.
Speaking at an Arab League summit in Mauritania on Monday, Mr Malki said the UK was responsible for all "Israeli crimes" since the end of the mandate in 1948.
"Nearly a century has passed since the issuance of the Balfour Declaration in 1917," he was quoted as saying by the Palestinian Wafa news agency.
"And based on this ill-omened promise hundreds of thousands of Jews were moved from Europe and elsewhere to Palestine at the expense of our Palestinian people whose parents and grandparents had lived for thousands of years on the soil of their homeland."
The minister did not provide any further details about the planned lawsuit.
Mr Malki made the announcement on behalf of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, who was not at the summit because of his brother's recent death.
The Balfour Declaration, named after then UK Foreign Secretary Lord Arthur Balfour, pledged Britain's support for the establishment "in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people".
The document formed the basis of the British Mandate for Palestine, which was formally approved by the League of Nations in 1922.
Jewish immigration to Palestine accelerated from the 1920s to the 1940s, latterly spurred by Nazi persecution and the Holocaust in Europe. The growth of the Jewish population was opposed by Palestine's Arab community, which rejected the eventual establishment of a Jewish state.
Britain has not publicly commented on the issue.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the move "will fail, but this shines a light clarifying that the root of the conflict is the [Palestinians'] refusal to recognise a Jewish state in any borders.
"It was and remains the heart of this conflict."


The US National Society of Film Critics has named Spotlight the best film of 2015.

The drama, which chronicles The Boston Globe's investigation into child abuse in the Catholic Church, features an all-star ensemble cast including Rachel McAdams and Michael Keaton.
Top acting honours went to Michael B Jordan for Rocky spin-off Creed and Charlotte Rampling for 45 Years.
Asif Kapadia's Amy Winehouse documentary won best non-fiction film.
Former Twilight star Kristen Stewart won best supporting actress for Clouds of Sils Maria, with British star Mark Rylance named best supporting actor for Bridge of Spies.
Best director went to Todd Haynes for Carol, which also picked up best cinematography for Ed Lachman.
Spotlight also won best screenplay for Josh Singer and Tom McCarthy.
Timbuktu, by Mauritanian director Abderrahmane Sissako, won best foreign language film.
Society members announced the winners at the Lincoln Centre for the Performing Arts in New York on Sunday.
Spotlight's success follows its win for best film at the Los Angeles Film Critics Association awards last month. It has also been nominated for a Golden Globe for best picture.
Creed was recently voted the best film of 2015 by the Black Film Critics Circle, where Jordan and Sylvester Stallone were named best actor and best supporting actor.


The Scottish government has said talks should continue between organisations bidding to host a Viking treasure hoard to ensure the "best outcome".

Both Dumfries and Galloway Council (DGC) and National Museums Scotland (NMS) hope to secure the artefacts.
The Scottish government has been asked to intervene to resolve the situation.
However, a spokesman said the decision lay with the Queen's and Lord Treasurer's Remembrancer and urged both sides to continue discussions.
The council hopes to secure the hoard to go on display at a new gallery being built in Kirkcudbright.
A campaign has also been launched locally to ensure the treasure - discovered in Galloway - returns to the region.
For its part, NMS has said it believed it had put forward a "mutually-beneficial and positive proposal".
It would allow part of the hoard to go on display in Kirkcudbright and, on occasion, the whole collection to be hosted by the gallery.
It had been hoped a joint bid could be agreed, but so far that has proved impossible.
A Scottish government spokesman urged the two groups to hold further talks to try to resolve the situation.
"NMS has proposed a collaborative approach with DGC which guarantees the long-term display of a significant portion and, for specific periods of time, all of the Galloway hoard in Kirkcudbright Art Gallery," he said.
"The Scottish government would encourage continued discussions to ensure the best outcome for the long-term conservation of the hoard and public access to it across Scotland.
"The decision on allocation is made by the Queen's and Lord Treasurer's Remembrancer and the advice of the Scottish Archaeological Finds Allocation Panel, not by ministers."
The panel is due to discuss the hoard's future later this month.


Almost 100 firefighters were called in to tackle a blaze at a discount store in Chingford.

Half of the ground floor of the Poundland store was alight as well as part of the first floor and the roof.
London Fire Brigade (LFB) was called to Old Church Road at 18:54 BST on Wednesday and 15 fire crews from Chingford and surrounding stations were drafted in.
The Met Police said the fire was being treated as suspicious.
"Three suspects were seen to leave the area soon after the fire started," a police spokesman said.
LFB said the cause of the fire is not known at this stage.
In a statement, LFB said 16 people had left flats adjacent to the building before fire crews arrived and that there were no injuries.
It added: "The fire severely damaged the store, rooms above and the building's roof but crews worked incredibly hard to contain the fire and to stop it from spreading.
"They remained at the scene throughout the night damping down remaining pockets of fire."


The former head of Brazilian football, Jose Maria Marin, has been extradited to the US to face corruption charges.

After his extradition, he appeared in court in New York, where he pleaded not guilty.
He was among seven officials from world football's governing body, Fifa, who were arrested in Switzerland in May.
He is accused of taking bribes worth millions of dollars from sports marketing companies in connection with the Copa America and Copa do Brasil.
If convicted, he could face up to 20 years in prison.
The Swiss authorities say he was accompanied by US police officers on a flight from Zurich to New York.
The US has indicted a total of 14 current and former Fifa officials and associates on charges of "rampant, systemic, and deep-rooted" corruption following a major inquiry by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Fifa's President, Sepp Blatter, has always denied any wrongdoing - but in September, he too was made the subject of a Swiss criminal investigation, launched alongside the US inquiry.


A Lurgan primary school has become one of the first in Northern Ireland to introduce a 'daily mile' scheme, getting all its pupils to walk or run a mile every day.

All 700 pupils at King's Park Primary School from primary one to primary seven take part.
The extra 15 minutes of exercise a day is in addition to normal PE lessons.
The "daily mile" was originally introduced in Scotland and aims to improve  pupils' health and fitness.
King's Park's head of PE Nicola Thompson said that it was an inclusive activity with many benefits.
"It's non-competitive, and every child can run the mile or build up by walking a little bit or jogging a little bit," she said.
"I have a primary four class and they love it.
"First thing in the morning they'll ask me when they are doing their mile.
"We also said to the parents and the children not to see the weather as a barrier, so even on colder or wet days we just get our coats on and get out there."
The daily exercise is not timetabled; teachers take their classes out at a time they feel is best.
Parents have also supported the scheme, and the school's principal Terry Shields said that teachers have also noticed benefits in the classroom.
"Part of the idea is to boost their social and emotional wellbeing too," he said.
"It does, we think, reflect on their work during the day.
"We've seen a big change and a big improvement in the children's behaviour and discipline generally in class and around school.
"All the children without exception have bought into it."
The school began running at the start of May.
If feedback from parents, pupils and teachers is positive, King's Park say they will continue with their daily mile when the new school year begins in September.


Sixteen-year-old Max Verstappen insists it is "more dangerous to bike through a big city than race in an F1 car" after being signed up to drive for Toro Rosso.

The Dutchman will become the youngest F1 driver in history when he competes in next year's championship.
Media playback is not supported on this device
Verstappen, who turns 17 next month, currently races in Formula Three.
"I'm a relaxed guy. I will handle it," Verstappen, who will replace Jean-Eric Vergne at Toro Rosso, told the BBC.
Verstappen is the son of former Formula 1 driver Jos, 42, who contested 106 grands prix for teams such as Benetton and Tyrrell between 1994 and 2003.
Max Verstappen will break the record for F1's youngest ever driver by almost two years when he lines up for his debut next year.
Spain's Jaime Alguersuari - who was 19 years and 125 days when he raced in Hungary, also for Toro Rosso, in 2009 - is the current record holder. Alguersuari left Torro Rosso and F1 at the end of the 2011 season.
The youngest driver to earn a Championship point is Toro Rosso's Daniil Kvyat, who was 19 when he finished ninth in this season's opening race in Australia. The Russian will be Verstappen's team-mate in 2015.
Verstappen was a successful kart racer before driving for Van Amersfoort Racing in this year's Formula Three Championship.
He made an impressive transition to F3, winning six consecutive races at one stage, and has eight victories in 27 races so far this season, leaving him second to Frenchman Esteban Ocon in the overall standings.
Although he will graduate to F1 with fewer than 40 single-seater races under his belt, it is not unheard of for drivers to make the step up to the top level of the sport with such low levels of experience.
Finland's Kimi Raikkonen had only contested 23 single-seater races when he graduated to F1 in 2001. He went on to become world champion in 2007 and is a 20-time grand prix winner.
Verstappen is not fazed by his fast-track progress and believes the hardest transition has already been made.
"I think the biggest step I had was karting to F3. I think F3 to F1 will be a smaller step," he told BBC Radio 5 live.
"I'm not that worried about it. The cars are a really safe. I think it's more dangerous to bike through a big city than race in an F1 car."
Verstappen's F3 team boss also believes he can succeed.
"It is a huge step but I think if anyone can do it, it's Max," Frits van Amersfoort told the BBC. "I've never seen a kid that age who is so calm and so relaxed. He has incredible feeling with the car.
"Time will tell and it's a huge step, but I think Max is capable of doing it. He will need some guidance and Toro Rosso will give him that for sure."
By joining Red Bull's junior team, Verstappen is following the same career path as four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel and his Red Bull team-mate, Australian Daniel Ricciardo.
BBC 5 live correspondent James Allen said Verstappen might have the necessary requirements to race in F1 but that some drivers would be concerned at sharing the grid with a 17-year-old.
"The governing body, the FIA, has to award a super licence and you can't race a Formula 1 car until you've got a super licence," Allen explained.
"The minimum requirement for that is some victories in certain important feeder categories.
"Verstappen ticks the boxes, so he is eligible for a super licence, but I think there will be quite a debate this weekend at the Belgian GP."
The ousted Vergne, 24, has collected 11 points for Toro Rosso this season after making his F1 debut for the team in 2012.
The Frenchman wrote on Twitter: "Toro Rosso is a good school. I learnt a lot. Now focused on a great end of season.
"I'm already working for 2015. Still a lot to show in F1."


Middlesbrough have completed deals for three players.

Belgium international striker Jelle Vossen, 25, arrives on a season-long loan from Genk, where he has scored 105 goals in 244 games.
Winger Yanic Wildschut, 22, is a former Netherlands Under-21 international and has signed for an undisclosed fee on an initial two-year contract.
Boro have also captured Chelsea goalkeeper Jamal Blackman, 20, on loan until 17 January.
The deals are subject to Football League and international clearance.
Vossen, who has been at Genk for his entire career so far, scored 13 times as the club finished sixth in the Belgian top flight last season.
He made international debut in 2009 and has two goals from 12 appearances.
Wildschut is a graduate of the academy at Ajax and has also previously featured for FC Zwolle and VVV-Venlo, as well as having a loan spell last season with Eredivisie side Den Haag.
His deal at the Riverside Stadium has an option for a further 12 months.
"Middlesbrough have been interested in me for a long time, but I wasn't ready to take the step a few years ago," Wildschut said.
"When I heard they wanted me again, I knew straight away I wanted to come here."


Exeter head coach Rob Baxter praised the contribution of flanker Julian Salvi after the Australian scored his first try for the club in the 41-3 Premiership win at Newcastle.

Salvi joined the Chiefs from Leicester in the summer and made his first start at Kingston Park.
"You probably don't really see what his contribution is until you sit down and watch the game in detail," Baxter said.
"He was probably in 35 rucks and his tackle count will be sky-high."
Salvi's form, along with that of fellow flanker Don Armand, has given Baxter a selection dilemma ahead of Saturday's clash with Leicester at Sandy Park
"Don's playing really well at the moment, he's bang on form," he told BBC Radio Devon.
"At the moment in a number of positions we've got some good players on form, selection for Leicester, with two ex-Leicester back-rowers there ready to go, is going to be tough, but that's the scenario you want to be in."
Baxter believes Exeter, who are third in the table with 11 points, are on course to meet his expectations from the first four rounds of Premiership fixtures:
"We targeted 12-plus points form this first block of four, so we're kind of on target for that and anything over that we'd be very pleased with, and less than that we won't be," he added.
"We're just putting ourselves in a good position, games against the top-end sides can change on one decision or one thing you get wrong, or one mistake you make."


The Football Association has been accused of giving a "disproportionate" punishment to a non-league manager banned for betting against his team.

Media playback is not supported on this device
Frome Town, who play in England's seventh tier, say that Nick Bunyard's three-year ban was "excessive" in comparison to more high-profile cases.
The 36-year-old was also fined £3,000 - he has since announced his retirement.
An FA spokesperson said: "It is of the utmost importance that the integrity of football is upheld at all levels."
An independent commission found that Bunyard placed 45 bets against Frome and his former club Paulton Rovers from September 2014 to April 2016.
FA rules prohibit "all those involved in the game" from betting on football "that takes place anywhere in the world".
However, a Frome Town club statement claimed the organisation was "driving people out" of the sport at grassroots level to set an example, while Bunyard described betting as "an epidemic amongst footballers" and said he has been "hung out to dry".
"I'm not a lone person putting bets on," he told BBC Somerset. "It is part of the culture of football.
"I don't know whether [the FA] are really accepting of that fact.
"I don't know whether they genuinely want to do anything about it or whether they just want to have a high-profile case to say, 'he got caught and he got banned' - but if they think that will deter players, I know for a fact it hasn't."
Tottenham's Andros Townsend, Cameron Jerome - on loan at Crystal Palace from Stoke last season - and Dan Gosling, who has joined Bournemouth this summer, are among those who have breached current betting regulations.
Winger Townsend was fined £18,000 in June 2013, striker Jerome £50,000 last August and midfielder Gosling £30,000 in March.
The FA spokesperson added: "Individuals who threaten the image of the game and place bets on their own team to lose - as is the case here - are committing serious breaches of the FA's betting rules, and will be sanctioned accordingly.
"The FA issues education to participants of the game in respect of its rules in relation to betting and other forms of misconduct.
"This education had been sent to Mr Bunyard's club prior to the start of last season."
Frome Town said the manager "deserved to be reprimanded in some way", but criticised the way the case was handled, citing a number of delays to proceedings.
They also claimed they were given "no opportunity as a club, or Nick as an individual to challenge the statement released".


A nine-year-old boy was hurt when he was hit by a car that was being pursued by police.

The Peugeot failed to stop after the collision, which happened at the junction of Raby Road and Perth Street in Hartlepool, Cleveland Police said.
The boy was hit as he crossed the road with his mother at about 21:35 BST on Tuesday.
A 35-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion dangerous driving and possession of an offensive weapon.
He was also suspected of driving while unfit through drugs.
The boy, who suffered bruising, did not need medical treatment, police said.
The vehicle also caused damage to the wall of a property, before crashing and ending up wedged between a wall and a car on Zetland Road.
Police are appealing for witnesses to come forward.


New St Helens coach Nathan Brown says he has inherited a squad packed with experience and ability.

"There's plenty of talented players to work with," the former Huddersfield coach told BBC Radio Merseyside.
"If we can get a little bit of improvement from every individual in the squad, hopefully we can go further than we have in previous years."
Under  Saints failed to reach the Grand Final for the first time in seven years last season.

They were  in the Super League play-off semi-finals, having finished third behind Wigan and the Wolves at the end of the regular season.
as successor to Royce Simmons was confirmed in April and he was due to remain with the Giants for the remainder of the 2012 campaign.
However,  in July, shortly after Huddersfield's exit from the Challenge Cup at the semi-final stage.
But with a sound base of local players to choose from, Brown is confident that he can achieve success with his new club.
"It's not long ago that Keiron Cunningham, Sean Long and Paul Sculthorpe all retired and James Graham left," he added.
"But then you've got Jon Wilkin, James Roby and Paul Wellens who have all played for their country.
"Ade Gardner has played for his country in the past and I'm sure he would like to get back there.
"St Helens provides players with lots of experience, who are generally home-grown players. The English players generally come through their system."
Hull FC duo  and  as well as  have been added to the St Helens squad ahead of next season and they have all been tipped to make an impact in 2013.
"Willie's career has really blossomed since he's been in England," said Brown, who guided Huddersfield to the Challenge Cup final in 2009.
"Every time a club plays against Willie, the opposition talks about him and he'll definitely provide something.
"Jordan is a younger kid who is on the rise and he's a player that we think will bring plenty to the table."


Iestyn Harris is set to leave his position as head coach of Salford Red Devils, reports BBC Radio Manchester.

It is understood the former dual-code Wales international is in talks over a severance deal, with his contract due to run until the end of next season.
Harris, 39, has officially been on sick leave since Salford's loss at Hull KR in June, but watched Huddersfield's win at St Helens on Thursday for the BBC.
His assistant Ian Watson has been acting head coach in his absence.
Harris took over at the AJ Bell Stadium in April 2014, replacing Brian Noble on a two-year deal, and guided Salford to a 10th-placed finish last season.
In June, Salford owner Marwan Koukash said Harris's job was safe following the arrival of World Cup-winning Australia coach Tim Sheens as director of rugby.
The Red Devils have won both games so far in The Qualifiers section of the Super 8s, having finished 11th during the regular Super League season.


Yeovil tested Carlisle's resilience with a second-half comeback as the Cumbrians held out to claim seventh successive home victory in League Two.

Shaun Brisley's first of the season and a Charlie Wyke header gave Carlisle a comfortable half-time advantage before Nathan Smith's goal set up an exciting finish in which both sides had chances.
Carlisle goalkeeper Mark Gillespie was brought into action early on, when he was forced to dive to his left to parry a 20-yard shot from Tahvon Campbell.
However the home side went in front in spectacular fashion in the 10th minute when Brisley seized on a clearance 25 yards from goal and sent a first-time volley dipping over Artur Krysiak's head and just under the bar.
Shaun Miller came within a fraction of adding to the lead when his delicate chip beat the goalkeeper and rebounded off the bar. Nicky Adams failed to keep his follow-up effort down, lofting the ball over the top from inside the area.
The Yeovil defence was struggling to cope with Carlisle's bright movement up front and Wyke made it 2-0 in the 36th minute with a bullet header at the near post from Adams's right-wing corner, the striker's 14th goal of the season.
The Glovers got back into the game just three minutes after the break when central defender Smith got up well to meet Matt Butcher's corner from the right and direct a firm header past Gillespie.
Yeovil spent long periods in the Carlisle half and Smith again went close from an inswinging corner, but twice Jabo Ibehre missed out with clear chances on the break for the Cumbrians.

Labour's shadow Welsh Secretary has said he will not be afraid to publicly criticise Labour Welsh ministers' delivery of public services if he is in government at Westminster.

Owen Smith rejected accusations from opposition parties that relationships between senior Labour figures in London and Cardiff had been too cosy.
Mr Smith said: "Where there needs to be hard words there will be hard words."
He told BBC Wales the relationship was one of "critical friendship".
In the first in a series of election interviews with Welsh political parties, he said: "What we need in Wales, what the Welsh people want and deserve is a partnership between a government in Westminster and a government in Wales both working for the good of Wales working to improve public services together, not criticising one another.
"There is a big difference between having an attitude whereby what you want is collaboration and partnership and where all the Tories want is for Wales to be castigated by them in order to score political points."


A 61-year-old woman arrested by police investigating the murder of a man at a County Antrim nursing home has been released unconditionally.

Seamus McCollum, 56, died at Maine private nursing home in Randalstown in September of last year.
However, the death was not treated as murder until April of this year, following the results of an autopsy.
Mr McCollum had cerebral palsy and had lived at the care home for nine years.
Police said the woman was being questioned at Antrim PSNI station.


Olympic silver medallist Jonny Brownlee stormed to a convincing victory in the Triathlon World Series in Edmonton.

Media playback is not supported on this device
Brownlee beat Spain's Mario Mola by 17 seconds with South Africa's Richard Murray five seconds back in third.
The Yorkshireman closed leader Mola's advantage in the overall rankings to 235 points going into the Grand Final at Cozumel in Mexico on 18 September.
Summer Cook led a United States 1-2-3 in the women's race with Vicky Holland and Non Stanford fifth and seventh.
Cook beat Sarah True in a sprint finish to secure her first World Triathlon Series win, with Katy Zafares in third.
Britain's Jodie Stimpson was unable to finish because of an Achilles tendon injury. She still sits in third place overall in the series, but may not be able to compete in the Grand Final.
In the men's race, Brownlee, 26, was second after the 750m swim, then broke away with Australia's Aaron Royle and Slovakia's Richard Varga in the 20km bike section.
His victory was never in doubt when he dismounted in the lead for the 5km run and he was able to celebrate by slapping hands with the crowd as he approached the finishing line.
Britons took four of the seven top places with Grant Sheldon, Thomas Bishop and Adam Bowden in fourth, fifth and seventh respectively.
Brownlee is now in second place in the World Series rankings with 3,705 points and can still overhaul Mola, who is on 3,940 points, with victory in Mexico.
Jonny's brother and double Olympic gold medallist Alistair, will return for Mexico after missing Edmonton.


Everton footballer Darron Gibson has been banned from driving after he hit a group of cyclists while drink-driving.

The Republic of Ireland star ploughed into three cyclists who had stopped on a pavement to fix a chain on 16 August.
Gibson, 27, then struck a pump at a petrol station in Greater Manchester, Trafford Magistrates' Court heard.
The ex-Manchester United player pleaded guilty to driving with excess alcohol, driving without due care and failing to stop after an accident.
The court heard Gibson had injury problems at the time, which made him feel "very low" at not being able to play and he had taken "various painkillers" following an operation.
Gibson told police that the evening before the crash he had gone out with his Everton team-mates and had drunk "copious amounts of alcohol".
He later arrived home and had an argument with his wife, which led to him leaving in his black Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo, he said.
Witnesses told the court how the Londonderry-born midfielder had been driving "too fast", before he mounted the pavement and collided with the men, leaving one with cuts to his legs, elbow and hand.
In a statement cyclist Philip Quinn, who sustained the worst injuries, said he recalled hearing "the roar of an engine and the skidding of tyres" before he was thrown into the air off his bike.
Another cyclist, Simon Howe, suffered soreness to his hips and back but no details of the injuries sustained by the third cyclist Andrew Moran were provided to the court.
Gibson was said to have then driven off at speed before the crash with a petrol pump in his hometown of Bowdon some minutes later.
The court heard a concerned petrol attendant called police after the midfielder got out of his car with no shoes on and filled his vehicle with fuel.
Arresting officers said they noticed an "obvious strong smell of alcohol" on Gibson's breath.
Gibson was then taken to a police station where he gave a positive reading of 57 micrograms of alcohol per 100ml of breath - the legal limit is 35.
The father-of-two told the court: "I am extremely apologetic and it was completely out of character."
As he passed a letter to the bench from Everton's club secretary, Oliver Jarvis, defending, told the court Gibson had never had any disciplinary issues at the club.
The player was banned from driving for 20 months but he was told his ban could be reduced by five months if he completed a drink-driving awareness course.
He was also ordered to pay compensation of Â£4,500 for the damaged bicycle and Â£1,000 to Mr Quinn - plus Â£100 each to the other two cyclists.
Gibson was also sentenced to a 12-month community order, with an unpaid work requirement of 200 hours.


Southampton striker Charlie Austin is supporting one of his former non-league clubs in their bid to avoid demotion.

Sixth-tier club Poole Town need to raise £70,000 to upgrade their home ground by the end of March.
Austin, 27, has told Poole's board they can have free use of his box at Southampton's St Mary's Stadium to entertain potential investors.
He scored 48 goals in 42 games for the Dorset club between 2008 and 2009 before moving to Swindon Town.
Poole are a point off the play-off places in their first season in National League South. Their home ground Tatnam, in the grounds of a secondary school, is set to be graded by an inspection.
The club will be relegated should they fail to pass the inspection, which requires a minimum amount of terracing for standing and upgrade their floodlights.
"It's a massive ask for those of us running the club to maintain our National League position from a financial point of view," vice-chairman Chris Reeves told BBC Radio Solent.
"On the pitch, the team have done us proud. But, we have to comply with the ground grading issues.
"It just doesn't bear contemplation that we would be relegated," Reeves added. "Somehow or other, we've got to bridge this gap."
The club have raised nearly £1,000 in the first 24 hours since launching an online donations page for the improvements.


The latest inflation figure for the UK revealed record low Consumer Prices Index (CPI) inflation of 0%, while the US figure expected later on Tuesday is expected to show a negligible increase in prices from a year ago.

However, both economies are recovering, and well enough that there's an expectation of interest rate rises on the horizon.
The normal pattern is for prices to rise alongside economic output. So when the economy is growing, so is demand for goods and services and thus their prices.
It's not just GDP, but employment is also expanding. The UK has a record high number of people in work, while US unemployment is falling and expected to recover to the pre-recession rate of 5%, according to the Federal Reserve.
There was one other period that required a new term to describe an unusual time.
In the 1970s, stagflation referred to high inflation while output was falling - precisely the opposite of what is happening today, but similarly goes against normal economic relationships.
The reason then, as now, is oil price shocks.
In the 1970s, two wars in the Middle East caused oil prices to shoot up and raise prices, which remained elevated despite slowing economic activity.
Since the shocks were external, and there was little capacity for economies like the US to respond domestically, the result was the unusual combination of sustained high inflation during a recession.
In the past few years, the UK also saw high inflation despite the worst recession in decades. You may recall that the Bank of England routinely described it as imported price pressure. The governor said that high energy and commodity prices were raising costs and there was zero domestically-generated inflation.
Now we have the opposite - there are price movements, but these stem from cheaper imported energy. Oil prices have plummeted since last summer. The Office for National Statistics (ONS) says the UK's record low 0% CPI has been driven by energy prices (motor fuels) falling 16.6% in the past year to February. It's also down to food prices, another sizeable imported commodity, which fell by 3.4%.
This means, though, that when volatile elements like energy and food are stripped out of CPI, core inflation is still positive at 1.2%. So, prices are rising and the economy isn't truly deflationary.
Still, factory gate prices, or the prices of goods sold by UK manufacturers, are seeing deflation, falling by 1.8% from a year earlier. That eventually feeds through to what we pay in stores. But, so many goods are imported, the more important price indicators are most likely to come from abroad. For instance, China is experiencing low price pressures that will be exported.
A little breathing space in terms of the costs of energy, food, and consumer goods is welcome after years of high inflation and below-trend growth.
The big question is how worried we should be about deflation. The Bank of England says that any deflation will be temporary. In other words, it's unlikely to be 15 years of falling prices as in Japan.
In any case, for now, falling prices while the economy is growing well may warrant a new term. Suggestions are welcome!


Owners of a waste collection business have been banned from running commercial vehicles for 25 years.

Wales' Traffic Commissioner Nick Jones disqualified "rogue" Wasteaters owners Andrew and Elizabeth Hughes until 2042.
Investigators found some vehicles at the firm in Prestatyn, Denbighshire, had serious defects, no MOT, were untaxed and even unregistered and uninsured.
"This is an appalling case by any standards," said Mr Jones.
The licensing regulator revoked their HGV licences following a public inquiry, which neither defendants attended.
Examiners from the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) identified a number of offences relating to vehicles following numerous checks in north Wales in 2016.
In evidence to the public inquiry, Jonathan Woodward said that during his 12 years as a DVSA traffic examiner he had never seen a more blatant, consistent, comprehensive and wide-ranging disregard for road safety.
One driver, Christopher Jones, told the traffic commissioner he had been told by Mr Hughes, to abandon vehicles when stopped by the DVSA.
He conceded he knew this could not be correct practice, but did as his employer instructed as a result of pressure.
"There has been deliberate and sustained illegal activity from this operator," concluded Mr Jones.
"I need to disqualify both partners for a very long period of time as this is an appalling case by any standards. Anything other than a very long disqualification will send totally the wrong message to compliant operators and industry."
The traffic commissioner said the partnership "sought to obtain a significant competitive advantage as a result of exceptionally serious failures to comply with regulatory regimes".
HGV driver Mr Jones was also disqualified from driving commercial vehicles for 18 months, with effect from 19 June 2017.


In January 2013, 25-year-old Chris Wood, from Cardiff, killed himself.

He had been suffering from mental health problems for several years.
An independent report says his death could have been prevented had he received the care he needed.
Here, his mother talks about life with her 'lovely son' and her family's fight to find out why more was not done to help him.
Debbie Wood spends her Saturday nights reliving the horror of 26 January 2013 - the night her youngest son Chris died.
She agonises about how things might have been different had she picked up the phone and spoken to him.
But social workers had advised her not to text and call him too often when he was out, so she resisted the urge.
It is a decision she says she will always regret.
When she did call, it was too late.
"He was a really lovely person. He was very gentle and kind and he was a perfect son," Mrs Wood recalls.
"When he was well he was very happy. As a little boy he was always so happy we used to call him our little sunshine.
"You can see in photos he was always smiling. He loved sports, music, going to the cinema and he was very close to other family members."
But Chris had complex mental health problems.
He had borderline personality disorder and made 32 attempts to end his life.
Mrs Wood first began to realise something was wrong when Chris was a teenager and became withdrawn and isolated from his friends.
"The first problem was about eight years ago when he took his first overdose," she says.
"That was closely followed by another and he was taken into the care of the community mental health team."
Life with Chris quickly became chaotic.
"He could be in the house and he would suddenly just run out and you'd go after him and have to try to find him and bring him back.
"Sometimes he would be found on the top of a bridge.
"Other times he'd overdose or he'd harm himself in some other way.
"He didn't seem to be able to control how he was feeling.
"We found that if he was taken into hospital, even if it was just a brief period, that would seem to diffuse the situation and when he'd come out, he would seem a lot better."
There was confusion about Chris's diagnosis - first the family was told he had dissociative disorder, later they were told it was borderline personality disorder.
"We didn't really have information and we weren't really aware of what was going on, we didn't really fully understand the situation."
Chris had regular appointments with healthcare professionals in Cardiff but Mrs Wood says they were often a cause of huge frustration.
"Chris was being told that he was fine.
"We were becoming increasingly dismayed as time went by that nothing more seemed to be done for him."
Requests for more help and advice on how to deal with Chris's problems fell on deaf ears, Mrs Wood claims.
"We also asked for someone to chase up an urgent appointment we were waiting on to assess Chris's risk to himself - we thought that was of paramount importance but we couldn't seem to get anyone to chase this up, no matter how hard we tried."
A report commissioned by Cardiff and Vale University Health Board and Mrs Wood's solicitor found that the failings in care arose because of the lack of a care coordinator and specific interventions for his complex problems.
To make matters worse, Chris also suffered from fits.
In 2010, he was diagnosed with epilepsy but, after further tests, his consultant psychiatrist, Dr Sudad Jawad, reversed the diagnosis.
Chris remained on the medication for epilepsy but continued to have fits.
"It made a terrible situation even worse," adds Mrs Wood. "We were completely confused about the whole thing.
"In the last months of his life, he had 12 fits in 20 days.
"At that point he was even too scared to sleep.
"We said everything we could to try and get help for him and there was no response."
Mrs Wood has raised questions about the care received from Dr Jawad, who treated Chris from 2008 until he died.
Dr Jawad has since retired and Mrs Wood's complaints are being investigated by the GMC.
Dr Jawad said it would be inappropriate for him to comment while that investigation is ongoing.
Despite his mental health issues, Chris did his best to live an independent life.
He had worked in a local pub and was training to be the assistant manager but had to leave when his problems became more acute.
He also started an IT college course.
"His brother always says he was very brave," says Mrs Wood.
"Even during the period with all these fits he did manage to keep going and he did quite well, all things considered, in his work life before that."
She believes that things could have been very different for him had he had better care and more of an understanding of borderline personality disorder.
"We knew very little at the time.
"We were just told to look it up on the internet.
"People with borderline personality disorders like Chris can be very impulsive and can't manage their emotions in the way that you and I would if anything goes wrong.
"He found it very difficult to cope with life and relationships were quite difficult for him to maintain."
In 2012, things took a turn for the worse for Chris and his family.
Doctors decided that admitting Chris to hospital was making his condition worse in the long run, so they resolved to try to avoid hospitalisation when possible.
His family say they were not informed of this decision.
"We couldn't understand why there was no response because once again we weren't really aware of the circumstances - even though we were the only ones who were actually caring for Chris in the community.
"We didn't really have anyone else to turn to.
"Somehow we just coped as best we could. What choice did we have?"
Keeping an eye on Chris was a full-time job.
Away from home, he would often text his mother and she could gauge how he was feeling.
"We'd text him and if he texted back, we'd think oh he's fine, everything's OK.
"If we didn't hear anything, then I'd text him again after a while and sometimes it was fine, other times there would be no response and then you would ring and if there was no answer then we got to know that it was likely there was a problem.
"In the early days he would quite often text me and say 'Goodbye, I'm sorry, I love you, it's nobody's fault' and then he'd switch his phone off and disappear. Obviously, we'd be panic stricken."
Chris's family got to know the places he would be likely to go.
"Sometimes we'd get there and you'd find the police were there, they'd found him on the wrong side of the barrier on a bridge.
"Sometimes we'd get a phone call and he'd been found on top of a building somewhere."
Even at home it was difficult for his family to ensure his safety.
"There was one occasion where we were in the living room and all the lights went out.
"The next thing we knew, there's banging on the front door and it's the police.
"Chris's friend had been murdered and he couldn't cope with it so he tried to electrocute himself.
"He'd warned the police about what he was going to do so we didn't find him."
Despite repeated suicide attempts, Chris's care did not seem to improve.
It was like firefighting, says Mrs Wood.
"If a proper care plan had been put in place in the beginning it would never have escalated like this and you can see how things got worse.
"I just feel he was let down so badly and so were we.
"We were abandoned, there was no one for us to turn to for advice or help because every time we asked, there was no response."
On the day he died, Chris had seemed quite upbeat and had arranged to meet some friends at the pub where he had worked.
He had arranged for his mother to pick him up at 20:00 GMT but called to say he was going to stay later.
"I listened to the background - it was bubbly and it sounded very positive so we said ok," says Mrs Wood.
"I texted him at 9.20pm and asked how it was, he said that everything was fine and that he'd be home a bit later.
"It got to about 10.15pm and because of our previous experiences, I was anxious and really all I wanted to do was ring him and say 'Look, where are you?'
"But we'd had an assessment from a social worker who'd said that it was best not to text him too much in case it stressed him out.
"I didn't want to appear not to be taking on board things that they said to us and that's something I'll always regret."
When she eventually called, there was no response so Mrs Wood and her husband Robin went to look for their son.
They found him in a lane in Cardiff.
"At first, I thought we'd arrived in time, we'd found him, he was fine.
"We pulled into the lane, then I realised what he'd done - he'd hanged himself on the gates.
"We went to the hospital and eventually they came and told us that they'd tried but there was nothing more they could do.
"I just couldn't believe it. We had taken him to A&E so many times - and always brought him back with us - that there was a big part of me that really couldn't believe it."
Life has never been the same for Mrs Wood and the family.
"It's hell, it really is.
"Somehow you have to find a way through every day.
"I focus on trying to get something done about what happened to my son because it was just disgraceful the way he was treated.
Cardiff and Vale University Health Board has apologised and said that the findings of its report into Chris's death have been recognised and accepted.
A spokesperson said that changes had been made to help prevent this happening again.
But Mrs Wood is still concerned for others in similar situations.
"If nobody speaks out, then this will continue to happen.
"I'm hoping that if people actually realised just how bad the care is for vulnerable, young people in society something might actually be done.
"If someone had spoken out before - maybe my son might still be here."


Three people have been given urgent medical treatment after taking a drug they thought was ecstasy at V Festival.

The trio suffered serious side effects after taking blue tablets, known as Blue Ghost, at the music festival on the Shropshire-Staffordshire border.
Staffordshire Police said officers have seized several of the tablets.
Government scientists are at the same event in Essex analysing samples of so-called legal highs after campaigns warning people not to take them.
A ban on legal highs at the twin festival sites was introduced seven years ago.
So far, more than 120 people have received medical treatment at Weston Park in Staffordshire, with two people needing to go to hospital, ambulance crews said.
Paramedics said it had been a "steady start" for staff and volunteers since the gates opened to campers on Friday.
Staffordshire Police said the three people taken ill from the tablets did not need to go to hospital and officers were investigating the incidents.
"Emergency teams have treated three people who took a blue tablet they believed to be ecstasy at V Festival in Weston Park," a spokesman said.
"All had serious side effects after taking the tablets and needed urgent medical treatment."


Police have appealed for help to trace a man who failed to return to prison more than two years ago.

Members of the public have been warned not to approach Graham Stewart, 33, from Glasgow.
He was due to return to HMP Edinburgh on 19 August 2014 but failed to do so.
A Police Scotland spokesman urged anyone with information to come forward. He said: "The 33-year-old has still not presented himself and inquiries are ongoing to locate him."
Mr Stewart is described as being white, 6ft tall, of muscular build, with short, dark brown hair and possibly facial hair.


A British woman has died after she and her husband were tortured at their home in South Africa, according to reports.

Susan Howarth, 64, and Robert Lynn, 66, were shot at and tied up by masked raiders on their farm in Dullstroom, in Mpumalanga province.
Ms Howarth, originally from Southsea, Hampshire, died after the ordeal, on Sunday 19 February, local reports said.
After being tortured, the couple were put in the back of a pick-up truck and left for dead in a ditch.
Mr Lynn, reportedly a former electrical engineer, was tortured with a blowtorch and knives.
According to local newspaper the Middelburg Observer, he returned home after the death of his wife, known by locals as the "English girl", on Tuesday.
Mr Lynn told the paper he woke at about 03:00 local time to the sound of his dogs barking and breaking glass.
The gang shot at the couple in their bedroom and demanded money. He said he gave them what he had but they continued to torture him.
After being dumped in a field, Mr Lynn told the Observer: "I crossed the road, crawling most of the way. On the other side I saw Susan, lying in a ditch. Her hands tied behind her back. She was bleeding from her head."
Mr Lynn flagged down a car and the pair were taken to Midmed Hospital.
A Foreign and Commonwealth Office spokesman said: "Our thoughts are with them at this difficult time. We are in contact with the local authorities."
Ms Howarth reportedly moved to Dullstroom in 1996 to set up a stables business. Her ashes will be flown to Southsea to be buried with her parents.
The Middleburg Observer reported five people had been arrested in connection with the attack and murder.


Prince Alwaleed bin Talal's attention span may be just seconds but his attention to detail is huge.

Visitors sitting across the desk from the billionaire on the 66th floor of his office in the Saudi capital Riyadh have to fight for him to focus on them as opposed to the 20 televisions screening 24-hour Arabic and English news stations.
The Arab world's richest man and occasional hunter grips his remote control like a revolver and channel-hops in between sentences. He doesn't like to miss a beat.
In his drawer sits a constantly updated spreadsheet listing how the world's media values his assets, publication by publication, from Forbes magazine to The Sunday Times newspaper. He's fastidious about its accuracy, recently suing Forbes as he claimed billions of dollars were missing from their calculations.
Framed pictures of the relevant pages line the office, next to photographs of Nelson Mandela, George W Bush and Queen Elizabeth with the 60-year-old prince.
The head of Kingdom Holdings, worth an estimated $32bn (Â£20bn), recently rubbed shoulders with around 100 other CEOs at Bill Gates's annual gathering in Seattle of the world's most influential bosses, one of the leading business hubs on the US West Coast.
It was his fifth meeting with Bill Gates and possibly the one that triggered him to promise this week that his entire personal fortune would be used after his death for humanitarian projects and initiatives.
The prince said he had been inspired by the Gates Foundation, set up by the Microsoft co-founder and his wife Melinda in 1997.
It was two gifts he received as a young prince that first started the nephew of King Salman's journey to the top.
They came from his father Prince Talal, the liberal former Saudi communications minister.
He got $330,000 after completing a business degree in California in 1979, but the investments he made with the money flopped.
After getting a further $600,000, which he invested in Saudi Arabia's construction industry in the 1980s, his luck changed. Suddenly Prince Alwaleed began to make money and diversify his investments.
The following decade he landed his biggest break yet with a $590m stake in what is now Citigroup. By 2005 the millions had become billions.
As the owner of 95% of Kingdom Holdings, a publicly traded company on the Saudi stock exchange, investments in a range of companies soon paid off for the prince.
The list is a mouth-watering array of high-end and household names ranging from hotels, restaurants, real-estate portfolios, petrochemical, agriculture and healthcare companies and major stakes in the worlds of publishing, entertainment and social media.
To manage his vast portfolio, the workaholic works and plays by his own rules.
He sleeps until 11:00 but that's because he works until 06:00. He builds into his day a calorie-controlled diet and a reflective early morning walk around his estate.
A small band of his closest employees are only required to work six hours a day in his office but won't ever be seen on a coffee break. The prince thinks it's more efficient that way.
He makes his staff's personal issues his business. The father-of-two can be admirably hands-on if an employee needs help but former workers have spoken to journalists about his aggressively short fuse if they suddenly fall out of favour.
Then there are the dwarves.
Whichever press reports you choose to believe, one thing is for sure: he has lots of them on one of many luxurious estates and they are there for entertainment purposes.
The bon viveur's team insists the dwarves are grateful recipients of his work ethic and jobs, in a country with high unemployment.
Yet despite playing the jester in his waterfall, spa and sauna-filled, hundred-million-dollar desert resorts, Prince Alwaleed doesn't himself suffer fools gladly. If someone hasn't done their research on an issue, he can stop a conversation dead in its tracks.
He also doesn't do small talk. He is a man on a mission.
His pioneering spirit is evident in his company's employment of women, who make up two-thirds of his staff. They include one of his pilots, in a country where women aren't allowed to drive. Some reports do question whether she actually gets the chance to fly one of his many private jets or not - but that's almost missing the point.
And that is, despite owning hundreds of cars, Donald Trump's old yacht and a fleet of jets, Prince Alwaleed's main obsession is often to use his financial empire to send out audacious social, political and philanthropic messages.
His latest pledge may indeed be the one he is most remembered for.


A jury has been sworn in for the trial of a man accused of killing a teenager who has been missing since August 2007.

Paige Chivers, who was 15, was last seen in Bispham, Blackpool, after a row at her family home.
Robert Ewing, 60, of Kincraig Place, Blackpool, denies murder and intending to pervert the course of justice.
Another man, 46-year-old Gareth Dewhurst of Duncan Avenue, Blackpool, also faces charges in connection with the teenager's disappearance.
He denies intending to pervert the course of justice, assisting an offender and a sexual offence.
The trial at Preston Crown Court is expected to last for 12 weeks.


A High Court decision that it was unlawful for the government to ban inmates with a history of absconding from being transferred to open prisons has been overturned.

The policy was introduced last year after several cases of violent prisoners absconding from open prisons.
But judges decided in April that such bans were inconsistent with the then justice secretary's parole directions.
The Ministry of Justice has now successfully challenged the ruling.
Chris Grayling had announced in 2014 that the government was "tearing up" the current system and introducing restrictions on known absconders, following a number of high-profile escapes.
They included armed robber Michael Wheatley, who carried out a raid on a building society after absconding from an open prison but was later returned to custody.
Under the previous system, prisoners could be moved to open prisons - also known as category D prisons - if the parole board found they were not a danger to the public or other inmates, or were unlikely to abscond.
Prisoners were often moved to such prisons towards the end of their sentence.
Inmates could then be given release on temporary licence (ROTL), allowing them to leave the jail for a few hours or even overnight.
The High Court decided it was inconsistent for the government to ban transfers, apart from in exceptional circumstances, because of Mr Grayling's own directions to the Parole Board.
These stated that "a phased release" to open prison was necessary for most inmates serving indeterminate sentences, in order to "test the prisoner's readiness for release into the community".
Three judges at the Court of Appeal have now allowed the government's appeal.
Announcing the unanimous decision, Lord Justice Sales said the conclusion was that the "various challenges to the lawfulness of the absconder policy must fail."


A man has been jailed for stabbing his father to death after a row over a mobility scooter.

Graham Clarke was found injured in Heywood, Manchester, on 5 April. He died later in hospital.
James Clarke, 34, of no fixed address, was jailed for 10 years after being found guilty of manslaughter at Manchester Crown Court.
The 52-year-old victim had accused his son of stealing his mobility scooter and the pair argued, police said.
Mr Clarke's family said: "Graham was taken from us in April in completely unnecessary circumstances.
"We cannot express how devastated we are that his life has been stolen and for this to have happened at the hands of his own son makes this particularly distressing for our family.
"We will never forget Graham or the many memories he has given us. Graham is now at peace and we have laid him to rest with his daughter Rachel."
Senior Investigating Officer Bob Tonge said: "This was a horrific and deeply personal attack that Clarke carried out on his own flesh and blood.
"Clarke has shown absolutely no remorse for causing the death of his own father, who he believed in his mind to be to blame for the deaths of his mother and his sister."
The Independent Police Complaints Commission is investigating police involvement with Graham Clarke before the death.


The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were among the disappointed crowd as the America's Cup World Series was abandoned due to extreme weather.

William and Kate travelled to Portsmouth to watch the second day of racing at the event.
They were hoping to cheer on Olympic champion Sir Ben Ainslie in his bid to be the first British challenger to win the trophy.
But with winds in excess of 30mph on site, the race was abandoned.
An official statement from the organisers said: "After discussions with the America's Cup organising committee, due to extreme weather we had to take the difficult decision to cancel today's racing and Louis Vuitton America's Cup World Series event programme, and the site has been closed for the day.
"We had hoped to go ahead with early racing, but with winds gusting in excess of 30mph we could not risk the safety of the crews and public, and their welfare is paramount.
"Due to high winds, the Waterfront Festival Arena and Fanzone Arena closed and we asked the public to leave the event site.
"For everyone who booked tickets in the Fanzone Arena and Grandstand today, refunds will be issued through Ticketmaster."
The royal couple were due to watch the first of two races from a boat and tour the festival site, but the ground had become waterlogged.
Sir Ben, who has won four Olympic golds and a silver, was joined by the Duchess as he launched Britain's bid to win the 35th America's Cup in June last year.
The Duchess, a keen sailor herself, is also royal patron of the 1851 Trust which provides training for young people who want to learn about sailing and the marine industry.
"The English summer, you just can't count on it," Sir Ben said, after the race was called off.
"Yesterday was the most amazing day of my sailing career. There were so many people out, everyone had a fantastic time.
"Today was a shame, but we will get that sorted out and book the weather in for next year."
Donna Jones, leader of Portsmouth City Council, called the cancellation "deeply disappointing".
She added: "While this is incredibly sad news for the thousands who were due to experience another spectacular event, the safety of the crews and spectators is paramount.
"The race village will remain closed for the rest of the day.
"While this has been a tough difficult announcement for the organisers, who don't want to let anyone down, it was the right choice given the circumstances."
The first America's Cup race took place off the Isle of Wight in 1851 but a British team has never won it.
The four-day World Series event in Portsmouth opened on Thursday with a sailing parade.
The weekend's racing was the start of a lengthy qualification process that will count towards the 2017 America's Cup Challenger Series, the winner of which will take on holders Oracle Team USA in the 2017 America's Cup.
The abandonment meant Sir Ben Ainslie and his Land Rover BAR Racing team secured the overall victory across the weekend.
