How the national media reacted to Liverpool's 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest in the Premier League at Anfield
The Reds kept up with the early Premier League pace-setters as Diogo Jota, Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah were on target. Jurgen Klopp's now side sit fourth, three points behind leaders Tottenham Hotspur.
Luis Diaz was among the standout absentees after news broke on Saturday night that the Colombian's parents had been kidnapped. Jota led the tributes, holding Diaz's number seven shirt aloft after opening the scoring, before Klopp detailed their "fight for Lucho." David Anderson of the Mirror: "Such is the strength of Liverpool’s goalscoring machine, that even Luis Diaz’s unexpected loss cannot slow them down.
"The 26-year-old had been due to play before news emerged on the eve of the match about his parents. The late change did not disrupt the Reds on the pitch, however, with Klopp's team having now gone a year without losing at home in the league. "Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk straddle the eras between Klopp’s first all-conquering side and that which he hopes will replicate its success, survivors of and inspirational forces behind the Kop reconstruction.
