Ghana striker Antoine Semenyo opened his goal-scoring account in the new season after scoring late to earn AFC Bournemouth a draw at Nottingham Forest. 
Last season, Semenyoward, who started for the Cherries, netted with four minutes remaining to cancel an early strike from the host.

Nottingham Forest broke the deadlock in the 23rd minute through Chris Wood before Bournemouth had a goal ruled out following a VAR check. Burkina Faso forward Dango Ouattara thought he had levelled for the visitors after the 30th-minute mark only to be denied by a review.

However, after a strong display in the final minutes of the match, the visitors earned a deserved leveller with Semenyo smashing home from close range.

Semenyo will be expected to fill in the void left by Dominic Solanke, who left this summer to join Tottenham Hotspurs despite the arrival of Evanilson from FC Porto.

Last season, Semenyo netted eight times in the English Premier League.
