Elliot Anderson scored an equaliser 48 hours after his mother’s funeral, helping Nottingham Forest move toward Premier League survival.
Nottingham Forest opened the scoring very early, in the 8th minute, through Chris Wood. The Kiwi was played through by Anthony Elanga, with the striker slotting his shot past the helpless Alisson. This early goal set the tone for Forest, who looked confident, organized, and dangerous on the counter or transition. Liverpool were in full control of the match thereafter, with about 71% of the ball. However, Forest's strong defensive structure never broke in the first half and Liverpool went into half time.
