Dominic SolankeSolanke has now scored 11 Premier League goals for Bournemouth this season

Bournemouth's Dominic Solanke scored in injury time to complete a hat-trick and hand Nuno Espirito Santo a defeat in his first game in charge of Nottingham Forest.

The former Wolves and Tottenham manager was appointed on Wednesday following the departure of Steve Cooper, was who sacked after the club's fifth defeat in six games.

Forest looked set to avoid another defeat when Chris Wood netted an equaliser in the 74th minute, but Solanke had the final say at the City Ground, scoring in the fourth minute of stoppage time for Bournemouth's third win in a row.

A frantic first half saw William Boly sent off after just 23 minutes before Forest were controversially denied a penalty.

Roared on by the home crowd, Anthony Elanga put Forest ahead after the break before Solanke scored twice in seven minutes.

The English forward came to the Cherries' rescue again when he cancelled out Wood's equaliser to claim all three points.

Defeat leaves Forest just two points clear of the relegation zone after Luton Town - who have a game in hand - claimed a 1-0 victory over Newcastle on Saturday.
