Dango Ouattara netted three goals in the second half to cement Bournemouth’s 5-0 win against Nottingham Forest, boosting the team’s chance to end in the top four and feature in the next Champions League.
The team that just defeated Newcastle 4-1 did another good performance by putting a stop to third-placed Forest’s defeatless streak since last month. Bournemouth also made a good record of going 11 matches unbeaten in the Premier League and recording points just one off the top four.
The first goal was scored in the ninth minute by Justin Kluivert after firing a long-range shot. Ouattara scored his first of the hat trick in the 55th minute, then scored another with a low strike six minutes later.
Ouattara scored his third goal through a rebound in the 87th minute before Antoine Semenyo added the team’s fifth goal in stoppage time; they could not find the net throughout the game.
Andoni Iraola’s side will not return to training as they face a difficult challenge in the next Premier League game against league leaders Liverpool in a challenge that fans could not wait to see the outcome
