Liverpool’s search for their first away win of the season continues as Nottingham Forest produced a superb performance to shock them and climb off the bottom of the Premier League at a boisterous City Ground.
Taiwo Awoniyi, who left Liverpool in 2021 without making a competitive appearance, hit the winner from close range after his initial attempt came back off a post.
Liverpool were a long way from their best – Virgil van Dijk wasted their best chance – and remain without an away league win this season.
Forest could have won by a more handsome margin, with Morgan Gibbs-White’s effort deflected over before substitute Brennan Johnson was denied by Liverpool keeper Alisson.
There were jubilant scenes on and off the pitch at the final whistle as Forest enjoyed their best day since returning to the top flight this season after a 23-year absence. (BBC Sports)
