Antoine Semenyo's late goal snatched a point for Bournemouth as they came from behind to hold Nottingham Forest on the opening day.
Chris Wood swept home the Forest opener in the 23rd minute after Cherries goalkeeper Neto parried a Ryan Yates shot to his feet.
It followed a broken ankle to their Brazilian midfielder Danilo, who was taken off on a stretcher after a clash with Semenyo.
Bournemouth - who had a goal disallowed in the first half - were much improved in the second half and levelled as Semenyo bundled home from close range when Forest failed to properly clear a cross.
The Black Stars forward pounced after Forest defender Harry Toffolo's clearance struck team-mate Murillo and fell invitingly for the him.
Forest had controlled the first half and almost doubled their lead when defender Willy Boly sent a powerful header goalwards from a Callum Hudson-Odoi corner, but Neto flung himself to the left for an important save.
Without last season's star striker Dominic Solanke, who joined Tottenham for £65m, Semenyo hopes to continuing scoring after opening his account for the season.
