Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest: As it happened

The Reds were shocked early on as Nottingham Forest star Dan Ndoye scored his first Premier League goal for more than a year.

The Reds thought they had secured a quick equaliser through Florian Wirtz, however, the German’s goal was ruled out for an offside in the build up.

The Reds went into the break 1-0 down, and came out determined to get back on level terms.

The home side eventually found their equaliser after Cody Gakpo broke down the right flank and supplied Alexander Isak with an easy tap in.

Despite being buoyed by the equaliser, Liverpool fell behind a second time after Nottingham Forest were awarded a penalty, which Morgan Gibbs-White duly converted.

With the game headed towards a third consecutive Anfield victory, Liverpool’s summer signing, winger Victor Munoz produced a moment of quality to introduce himself to the Kop and secure a point for Andoni Iraola’s men.
