Lacklustre Liverpool Snatch Late 1-0 Premier League Win at Nottingham ...

Mac Allister's late goal secured Liverpool's 1-0 victory, helping them stay in the Champions League race while Forest remain just above relegation, officials said.

  • On Feb 22, Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister struck a winner deep into stoppage-time to secure a 1-0 victory at Nottingham Forest after an earlier effort was ruled out for handball.
  • After a warm-up injury to Florian Wirtz, replaced by Curtis Jones, Liverpool dominated the first half but barely threatened while Callum Hudson-Odoi and Elliot Anderson had early chances.
  • VAR intervened late, overturning an initial goal for handball before approving the rebound after an offside check, as Stefan Ortega kept Salah’s header out in normal time.
  • Liverpool manager Arne Slot warned about lost ground in the Champions League race as Liverpool are sixth on 45 points, level with Chelsea and Manchester United, while Nottingham Forest remain 17th on 27 points, two above relegation.
  • Mac Allister reflected to Sky Sports that `Mixed feelings, I love scoring, I love winning, but I don't think we played very well. It's always nice when you win`, and Vitor Pereira, Nottingham Forest manager, said his side can take confidence despite the defeat.
