Nottingham Forest delivered a stunning blow to Liverpool’s season with a dominant 3-0 win at Anfield, marking their first consecutive league victories at the stadium in 62 years and piling pressure on Arne Slot’s struggling side.
The breakthrough came in the 33rd minute when Liverpool failed to clear a corner, allowing Murillo to smash the ball home. Liverpool players protested, insisting Dan Ndoye was offside and blocking Alisson’s view, but the officials allowed the goal to stand.
Forest doubled their lead just moments into the second half. Neco Williams burst down the flank and cut the ball back for Nicolo Savona, who fired clinically past Alisson to tighten the visitors’ grip on the game.
Any hopes of a Liverpool comeback vanished in the 78th minute. Alisson produced a strong save to deny Omari Hutchinson, but the rebound fell perfectly for Morgan Gibbs-White, who finished from the centre of the box to seal Forest’s emphatic triumph.
The defeat extends Liverpool’s miserable run to six losses in their last seven Premier League matches, leaving them provisionally 11th on 18 points — eight behind leaders Arsenal. Forest, meanwhile, climbed to 16th as their resurgence gathered momentum.
