Bournemouth midfielder Billing: Always nice to shut up Forest fans

Bournemouth midfielder Philip Billing was thrilled to be part of their stunning 3-2 win against Nottingham Forest.

Billing struck for the Cherries at the City Ground.

He said, "It's a great stadium to score at. It's always nice to shut up the home team's fans. Especially because they are so energetic.

"It is great to score and open the goal account in the Premier League this season. The most important thing, however, is that we win and get three points."

Billing has previously scored a similar long-range goal at the City Ground.

"It was from the exact same spot on the pitch. I have a bit of a feeling of deja vu, so I must go home and see the goals again.

"I have to shoot more - the opportunities are there."
