Nottingham Forest-Liverpool LIVE!
Substitute Diogo Jota’s second-half header earned Liverpool a battling 1-1 draw with surprise title rivals Nottingham Forest on Tuesday, keeping the Premier League leaders six points clear at the top of the standings.
High-flying Forest, who are enjoying a remarkable season after just avoiding relegation last term, raced into the lead in an electric City Ground atmosphere through striker Chris Wood with eight minutes on the clock.
Liverpool, whose only league defeat this season prior to their trip to the East Midlands came against Forest in September, looked to be heading for another humbling before Jota headed home a 66th-minute equaliser from a corner.
Jota and Mohamed Salah almost secured Liverpool’s victory in the past, but found home goalkeeper Matz Sels in good form. Instead, the draw put Arne Slot’s team six points clear of second-placed Forest, who have played one more game. Read the LIVE fit below with our engaged fit blog!
