Breaking:Dramatic Bournemouth victory after Solanke’s hat-trick is overshadowed by the Forest red card.

Dramatic Bournemouth victory after Solanke’s hat-trick is overshadowed by the Forest red card. 

In case there was any uncertainty, this particular match served as strong proof that the constantly changing rules of the

game have an excessive number of flaws. After a hard-fought loss to Manchester United earlier in the season, Nottingham

Forest filed a formal complaint against referee Rob Jones.

The Forest manager was shocked by Jones’ decision to give Willy Boly a second yellow card for a tackle on Adam Smith 24 minutes into the match, even

though Boly easily won the ball. As a result, PGMOL was officially removed from the Christmas card list. According

to the rules, VAR was unable to step in. What the officials back at Stockley Park were thinking must be a mystery.

That choice, which resulted in Forest playing with 10 men for more than 70 minutes, will be cited by the team as a

major contributing reason to their crushing loss to Bournemouth at home. It appeared that Forest had managed to

rally for a point, but deep into stoppage time in the second half, Dominic Solanke scored his hat-trick

by heading Smith’s cross into the far corner, leaving Nuno Espírito Santo sick. Solanke leads all Premier League goal scorers this season, with Erling Haaland

coming in second. Nuno’s last managerial post was in Saudi Arabia; did he really miss the Premier League?

Forest developed something of a siege mentality, at least because of his sense of injustice. Boly’s dismissal and the

decision to spare Smith even though he appeared to handball in the box minutes later overshadowed the first half.

Although both of the Bournemouth defender’s feet were inside the box when Harry Toffolo’s cross struck Smith’s left

arm, VAR determined that it was unclear whether Smith’s left arm was inside the area. It is unlikely to end here, just as it

did with Newcastle’s victory over Arsenal in November, which led to Mikel Arteta’s criticism of officiating practices.

By the time Jones and his assistants, Wade Smith and Mat Wilkes, headed

down the tunnel, flanked by police and stewards, it was difficult to remember

anything beyond those controversies. The first fifty-one minutes or so of the game were effectively a write-off.

The first fifty-one minutes or so of the game were effectively a write-off. After that, the match became a competitive

four-on-three match, only in the technical domains. In private, officials would be wriggling over Jones’s decision

to give Boly a second yellow card and thereby prevent the decision from being overturned. The regulations still have far

too many gaps in them. Fans were furious with Jones, but in a different universe, they could have assisted him.

Two minutes into the second half, Anthony Elanga gave Forest the lead with a cool first-time finish after Chris Wood had dispossessed Alex Scott, the Bournemouth substitute. Four minutes later, though, Solanke gave the visitors a response. The form player outmuscled

 

Murillo in the air and sent a header that whirled over Matt Turner in the Forest goal.

Antoine Semenyo attempted to put Bournemouth ahead, but Neco Williams made a fantastic block to stop him.

However, the visitors quickly took the lead again when Solanke scored after Forest was unable to clear a corner. But

Forest was far from out, and Wood entered at a Forest corner using a Dango Ouattara detour to guarantee a

grandstand finish. Once more, Solanke took the lead and looped in another header.
