Premier League wrap: Brentford and Bournemouth enjoy goal gluts
Bournemouth's Justin Kluivert became the first player in Premier League history to score a hat-trick of penalties as he inspired a 4-2 win at Wolves.
Wolves goalkeeper Jose Sa, who gave away two of the spot-kicks, confronted angry supporters at half-time as the home side’s recent revival was brought to an abrupt halt.
It was a manic afternoon at Molineux which saw four goals in the opening 18 minutes, with Kluivert bagging twice from the spot either side of Milos Kerkez’s goal.
Jorgen Strand Larsen had made it 1-1 and then 3-2 but the Dutchman’s third penalty of the game killed it for the Cherries.
The defeat piles the pressure back on Wolves boss Gary O’Neil, who appeared to have bought himself some time after back-to-back wins over Southampton and Fulham.
Kevin Schade shone as his hat-trick helped Brentford dominate Leicester 4-1 at the Gtech Community Stadium in the Premier League, showing incoming Foxes boss Ruud van Nistelrooy the size of the job at hand.
Despite Facundo Buonanotte opening the scoring in west London, Yoane Wissa grabbed his eighth of the season before Schade sparkled with three strikes to inflict more misery on the struggling Foxes, who van Nistelrooy will now assume control of.
A victory for Thomas Frank's men helped them back to winning ways following last week’s goalless draw at Everton, with four goals on Saturday putting their season tally to 26 after 13 matches.
Chris Wood's second-half penalty was decisive as Nottingham Forest returned to winning ways with a 1-0 home Premier League victory over Ipswich.
Wood maintained his impressive goalscoring form this season by emphatically converting from the spot soon after the interval to lift Forest up to sixth in the table.
