ARNE SLOT’S honeymoon period as Liverpool head coach came to an end as Nottingham Forest pulled off a shock victory at Anfield.
Substitute Callum Hudson-Odoi had a semblance of an idea when he picked up the ball on the left wing but, after cutting inside past Conor Bradley and Ibrahima Konate, even he could not have imagined how perfectly he would strike his low curling shot which crept inside Alisson Becker’s left-hand post.
It was all a bit too disjointed, which was exactly how Forest would have wanted it to be, and Liverpool’s best chance was probably their first of the game. The Forest goalkeeper did not handle Diaz’s ballooned header as well, however, and his fumble saw the the ball dropping down on the line before he snatched it up.
Anthony Elanga wasted a good chance when he blazed over having found space on Liverpool’s left, while Alexander-Arnold’s shot was deflected wide after Nunez robbed Elanga.
