Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest

Liverpool needed a deflected strike deep into the second half to salvage a 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest at Anfield, in a game the visitors arguably deserved more from. It was another shaky afternoon for the hosts, who were fortunate to only trail by one at the break. Dan Ndoye put Forest ahead in the 24th minute with a well-taken finish. Alexander Isak leveled things in the 60th minute, tapping home after a fine cross from Gakpo. Forest responded quickly, winning a contentious penalty when Neco Williams went down under contact from goalkeeper Alisson; Morgan Gibbs-White converted from the spot in the 70th minute to restore the lead. Late drama followed as substitute Victor Munoz smashed in his first goal for the club in the 81st minute, the shot deflecting in off the crossbar. The result leaves Liverpool still searching for a first league win, having now drawn 2-2 in consecutive matches. For Nottingham Forest, it's a first point of the campaign and a fifth straight league game unbeaten against Liverpool, a promising sign of resilience under new management.
