""The first half was really poor, the worst we've played until now, I think," the Dutchman said. "But the second half was much better, we controlled the game much more. "The performance was, especially in the first half, not as good as we've had so many times this season. "But we've been on the wrong side of the score after a good performance far too many times and today, I think we got more than we deserved. "A draw would have been a fairer result than for us to win it.""
""Since VAR is there, I always struggle to celebrate too much if I think there might be something going on," Slot said. "You never know, if a ball is hit to a body, where it ends up. And apparently it ended up on his arm. "So it was disallowed. So then my emotions were, 'OK, still not everything that could have gone against us this season has happened yet. Still one more to go.'""
Liverpool struggled for much of the match at Nottingham Forest, with Arne Slot describing the first half as the worst they have played. The team improved after half-time and exerted more control in the second period. Alexis Mac Allister had an earlier effort ruled out by VAR after the ball appeared to strike his arm following a Stefan Ortega save and Ola Aina's attempted clearance. Mac Allister then scored the decisive goal in the sixth minute of added time. Slot said the side did not deserve the three points and that a draw would have been a fairer outcome, while noting some late fortune aided the win.
