Callum Hudson-Odoi scored the only goal 18 minutes from time to secure Forest’s first away league win against Liverpool in 55 years. Liverpool had won all three of their opening games under Slot without conceding, including a 3-0 win away at Manchester United two weeks ago. But the Reds were sloppy and sluggish after the international break and made to pay. Luis Diaz was unlucky not to spark the home side into life when he robbed Ryan Yates and smashed a shot off the inside of the post midway through the first half. Diogo Jota volleyed straight at Matz Sels,…
Liverpool had a day to forget against Nottingham Forest. The Reds dropped their first points of the season after suffering a 1-0 home defeat to Nuno Espirito Santo’s Tricky Trees. Despite being the match’s clear favourites to take the win, Arne Slot’s men failed to capitalise before Callum Hudson-Odoi’s 72-minute strike sealed the result. And although none of Liverpool’s players stood out today, one star was criticised more than his teammates. Mo Salah slammed for “poor” performance against Nottingham Forest Winger Mo Salah, who enjoyed a fantastic game against Manchester United last time out, failed to replicate his last performance…
Milan will face Liverpool in the Champions League on Tuesday and received a boost with news Arne Slot suffered his first defeat on the Reds bench. The European showdown is at San Siro on Tuesday at 20.00 UK time (19.00 GMT). It has been a dismal start to the season for the Rossoneri under coach Paulo Fonseca, managing only a pair of comeback 2-2 draws with Torino and Lazio around the defeat to newly-promoted Parma. However, their rivals were stunned today too, because Liverpool suffered a shock 1-0 home defeat in the Premier League to Nottingham Forest this afternoon. Liverpool…
The Anfield outfit’s fans were in dreamland following three wins in a row, three clean sheets, and a three-goal rout of Manchester United. However, it was a different ensemble of Reds that triumphed at Anfield, as Forest frustrated Liverpool before striking on the counter. Midway through the second half, Anthony Elanga found Callum Hudson-Odoi with a superb crossfield pass. The former Chelsea man then came in off the left flank and curled a right-footed effort into the net off Alisson Becker’s far post. Liverpool couldn’t find a way back into the game and so Forest were able to take three…
Arne Slot’s side were yet to concede a league goal this term, before the introduction of Hudson-Odoi from the Forest bench, with Nuno Espirito Santo masterminding the unlikely 1-0 win. The substitute scored the winner in the 72nd minute after Liverpool’s retreating backline offered him the time and space to measure a shot from 20 yards. He obliged, bending a perfectly precise strike beyond Alisson at full stretch into the far corner. Liverpool, with lofty ambitions in Slot’s first season in charge, created plenty but lacked any cutting edge as every final pass or attempted finish failed to hit the…
Liverpool slumped to their first defeat of the Arne Slot era with a dreary setback against Nottingham Forest. Visiting substitute Callum Hudson-Odoi scored the only goal with 18 minutes to end the 100% start to the head coach’s reign. The Reds struggled to get going and delivered a poor second-half showing in which a spate of substitutions made little difference to the overall pattern of the game. And the ECHO was at Anfield to rate Liverpool’s players after Forest earned their first win at the stadium in more than 55 years. Andy Robertson 6 Among those to have been on…
It was a woeful return from the international break for Liverpool as their unbeaten start to the season came to a crashing halt in a 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest. Although an international break paused the Reds’ early momentum, for Arne Slot “it was not that difficult to have the same lineup” as the one that comfortably put Man United to the sword. The unchanged XI had been aiming to equal a club record of four league shutouts to start a season – last achieved in 2005/06 – but that ended in frustrating misery. Luis Diaz had the first sight…
Liverpool and Nottingham Forest hold a minute’s applause for Reds legend Ron Yates following his recent passing. Nottingham Forest fans have paid a classy tribute to the 97 victims of the Hillsborough disaster ahead of today’s clash with Liverpool at Anfield. Approximately 3,055 visiting supporters have made the journey north to Merseyside for the 3pm BST kick-off and made the perfect impression ahead of the game by displaying a banner that read: “Respect the 97. Solidarity with survivors. No tragedy chanting.” The heartfelt tribute certainly went down well with the home faithful as the players lined up for kick-off, with…
The international break is over, at long last, and we are straight back into Premier League action at Anfield, with Arne Slot again opting for consistency with his starting lineup. Liverpool had 19 first-team players involved for the respective nations during the break, with 10 playing the maximum minutes available to them. With a run of seven games in 22 days, there were questions about how Slot would look to manage his team – starting against Nottingham Forest. There was never any doubt that Alisson would start in goal, and he sits behind Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk…
Liverpool manager Arne Slot has picked his team to play host to Nottingham Forest at Anfield in the Premier League today. The Reds have wasted no time in adapting to Slot’s demands and crushed Manchester United 3-0 before the international break kicked in. Now Slot will want to see Liverpool record another win to blow away the break cobwebs and they are strong favourites to do so. Forest though have yet to be beaten this season, although they have also not yet managed to score more than one goal in any game. Liverpool have Alisson in goal, while at the…
