Nottingham Forest Shock Liverpool With Comprehensive 3-0 Victory To Deepen Reds’ Premier League Crisis
Nottingham Forest produced a stunning upset at Anfield, cruising to a 3-0 victory that further damaged Liverpool’s fading title push and secured Forest’s first consecutive league wins on the ground in more than six decades.
Murillo opened the scoring in the 33rd minute after Liverpool failed to clear a corner. The hosts protested that Dan Ndoye was offside and obstructing Alisson’s view, but the goal was allowed to stand.
Forest struck again almost immediately after the restart, with Neco Williams pulling the ball back for Nicolo Savona to drive beyond Alisson.
Liverpool’s misery deepened in the 78th minute when the goalkeeper parried Omari Hutchinson’s effort, only for Morgan Gibbs-White to pounce and finish from the middle of the box.
The defeat marked Arne Slot’s sixth loss in seven league matches, leaving Liverpool provisionally 11th on 18 points, eight behind leaders Arsenal. Forest climbed to 16th with the emphatic win.
