Nottingham Forest’s Sam Surridge fired a late equaliser to earn his side a 1-1 draw at Bournemouth as the south-coast team dropped into the relegation zone despite ending a four-match losing run in the Premier League.

Forest started strongly but Bournemouth struck first through Jaidon Anthony after winger Dango Ouattara set up the goal in the 28th minute with a bit of brilliance on his league debut.

Ouattara, signed from Lorient earlier this week, shook off a couple of defenders on the right wing before squaring the ball to Anthony, who steered a low shot past goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey to net Bournemouth’s first league goal since November.

Forest continued to threaten after the break and their pressure finally paid off in the 83rd minute when Surridge slid in at the far post to meet a Brennan Johnson cross and score against his former team. The draw takes Forest’s unbeaten run to four league games

Ouattara holds up the ball, playing it to Christie who sends it back down the wing for the attacker to chase. Rushing into the box, he ignores Moore in the middle and sees his shot from a tight angle turned behind by the goalkeeper.

SAVE! Neto makes the first save of the game. Outside the box, Johnson plays the ball down the right to Aurier. He moves inside the box and wants it back, but the right-back looks for Gibbs-White. In the middle of the box, his shot is pushed away by the goalkeeper.

Moore collects the ball inside the Forest half, moving down the middle third of the pitch before spreading it out to Ouattara. The debutant looks to beat Lodi, but the left-back slides to win possession.

Up the other end, Wood makes his first run behind the Bournemouth defence. He tries to get on the end of a curling pass from Aurier, but Neto steps out to collect the ball.
