Dominic Solanke shine as Bournemouth outsmart Nottingham Forest; promoted to Premier League

Bournemouth are back in the Premier League, as they confirmed their promotion as Championship runners-up with a 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest on Tuesday, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The Cherries started on-loan Liverpool centre-back Nat Phillips and ex-Reds forward Dominic Solanke at the Vitality Stadium, eventually securing a win thanks to Wales international Keiffer Moore.

Solanke set up the goal in the 83rd minute, as he played a clever free-kick into the path of Moore who rattled a composed finish into the bottom corner.

They will be promoted along with Fulham, who were confirmed as champions on Monday after a 7-0 hammering of Luton Town, while Forest will have to go via the Playoffs if they are to make a long-awaited return to the top flight.

Bournemouth were relegated in 2020 and were beaten in the semi-finals of the Playoffs last season by Brentford, who eventually went on to secure a top-flight spot.
