Liverpool managed to secure a dramatic 1-0 victory against Nottingham Forest despite enduring one of their poorest performances of the season.
Arne Slot’s squad struggled significantly at the City Ground, with former captain Jamie Carragher labeling their first-half showing a “horror show.”
However, they emerged with three points as Alexis Mac Allister found the net deep into stoppage time, shortly after having a goal controversially overturned by VAR.
The decision left Liverpool furious, but the more significant misfortune lay in the result following their poor showing against a revitalized Forest, who are gaining momentum under Vitor Pereira’s management.
Nevertheless, Liverpool’s victory positions them favorably in their pursuit of Champions League qualification, leveling them on points with Chelsea and Manchester United.
For Nottingham Forest, this defeat will sting, but they can take pride in their performance as they remain deeply embroiled in a relegation battle.
What eluded the hosts was a goal, with Callum Hudson-Odoi squandering their best opportunity just five minutes in.
