Anfield witnessed a shock on Saturday night as Nottingham Forest delivered a clinical and fearless performance to hand Liverpool a crushing 3–0 defeat. Murillo’s towering first-half header set the tone, before Savona struck just seconds after the restart, finishing off a sweeping counterattack that carved through Liverpool’s midfield. Despite dominating possession, the Reds looked blunt in attack, wasting chances and struggling to break down Forest’s compact shape.

The home crowd was silenced again in the 78th minute when Morgan Gibbs-White reacted fastest to a loose ball, drilling in Forest’s third and sealing a memorable night for the visitors. Liverpool’s growing frustrations were clear as manager Arne Slot admitted his team “fell below expectations,” while Forest celebrated a perfectly executed game plan that left Anfield stunned.
