Head coach Steve Cooper conceded Nottingham Forest had “thrown away a win” as they fell 3-2 at home to Bournemouth.
The Reds had been in the driving seat at half-time against their fellow newly-promoted side. Looking comfortable, a Cheikhou Kouyate header and a Brennan Johnson penalty had put them 2-0 up.
The second half was a completely different story, however. Nerves seemed to set in when Philip Billing pulled one back for the visitors. Goals from Dominic Solanke and Jaidon Anthony then turned the game on its head to condemn Cooper’s men to a third straight defeat.
