At the Vitality Stadium on Saturday, Nottingham Forest lost badly to Bournemouth 5-0, and Ola Aina and Taiwo Awoniyi had a difficult afternoon.
Aina started the match but was substituted in the 79th minute, while Awoniyi came on at the same time.
However, their efforts couldn’t prevent Forest from succumbing to an inspired Bournemouth side.
The Cherries delivered a dominant performance, led by Dango Ouattara’s hat-trick and goals from Justin Kluivert and Antoine Semenyo.
Kluivert opened the scoring in the ninth minute as Bournemouth’s relentless attacking strategy paid off.
The winger took advantage of a quick counterattack and finished with accuracy a strike reminiscent of his goal against Newcastle the weekend before.
As Forest struggled to settle, Bournemouth kept up the pressure, forcing goalkeeper Matz Sels into two crucial saves before halftime thanks to goals from Ryan Christie and Antoine Semenyo, which kept the scoreline respectable for the time being.
The second half, however, was all Bournemouth.
In the 55th minute, Kluivert’s perfectly placed cross found Ouattara, who headed home to double the lead.
Moments later, Kluivert thought he had added a third, but VAR ruled his goal out for offside. Bournemouth refused to relent, with Tyler Adams setting up Ouattara for his second goal in the 62nd minute.
