Nottingham Forest vs AFC Bournemouth
Tavernier swings in a great freekick into the Forest box and Huijsen meets it with a clean strike which goes straight at Sels. The flag is up anyway for offside against the defender, who otherwise was close to a debut goal.

Semenyo with Bournemouth’s first real effort on goal, and basically all self-made. The ball fell to him towards the right side of the Forest box. The Cherries striker dropped his shoulder and hit an effort with his left foot just wide of the Forest goal. Much better from the Bournemouth striker, who has been marked out of this game so far.

Some tidy defending from Forest and Hudson-Odoi plays the ball forward towards the Cherries box. It eventually comes to Gibbs-White but his cross into the box is well cleared. Bournemouth are struggling to get a hold of possession so far, with Forest dominating 62% of the play so far. Bournemouth are also yet to take a shot on goal with over 40 minutes played here.

GOAL RULED OUT! Cook is deemed to have been leaning offside in the build-up to the goal and Forest get away with some lacklustre marking thanks to VAR. It remains 1-0 to the home team.

GOOALLL!! Ouattara equalises for the Cherries and it’s 1-1 with a set-piece straight from the training ground! Sinisterra twists and turns at the edge of the box before eventually hitting a strike towards goal. It’s deflected out for a corner which is taken short and played low into the box. The ball falls to Ouattara and he smashes it into the top corner. But wait, VAR are checking it for a potential offside…
