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

WIDE! Anthony's cross is cleared as far as Christie who has his strike blocked. It comes out to Moore, who shoots just wide from inside the box.

Aurier is holding his face. He thinks Anthony's arm has caught his face but the referee ignores his claims.

CLOSE! Fantastic play from Moore. Holding the ball up, he passes it through the legs of Worrall down the left to Anthony. Rushing forward, he waits before playing a short pass to Zemura. Overlapping the winger, his cross looks to be going straight to Ouattara, but Lodi is there to poke it behind.

Zemura sends a long pass towards Moore, but the striker is offside. Moore appreciates his attempt, sticking his thumb up at the left-back.

Johnson does brilliantly down the right, getting the ball on the wing before sending a cross low across the box. Forest players rush forwards with Wood going past it. If he held his run, he would have had a simple finish in the middle of the box.
