In the second half of the match, Bournemouth brought on Ryan Fraser and that ultimately proved to be the turning point of the game.
Seconds later Callum Wilson scored the penalty making the score 1-2. Liverpool's Emre Can extended the lead to 3-1 before the Cherries staged a comeback with two back to back goals courtesy Fraser and Centre-back Steve Cook.
It looked as if the game would end in a draw before Reds goalkeeper Loris Karius spilled Cook's shot and Ake tapped home into an empty net in injury time.
Meanwhile, in another Premier League encounter, Manchester United were held to a 1-1 draw against Everton.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored the opener in the 43rd-minute opener but Leighton Baines of Everton scored the equaliser through a penalty in the dying moments of the game.
