Nottingham Forest secured a historic 1-0 victory over Liverpool at Anfield, their first win at the stadium since 1969, thanks to a stunning goal by Callum Hudson-Odoi. The defeat marked the first loss for Liverpool under new manager Arne Slot, as Forest continued their impressive start to the season.
Liverpool struggled to find rhythm in the first half, with Forest’s players excelling in key battles across the pitch. Àlex Moreno effectively neutralized Mohamed Salah on the right, while Ryan Yates clashed fiercely with Alexis Mac Allister in midfield. Liverpool had a few close calls, including a Luis Díaz strike hitting the post, but Forest held firm.
In the second half, despite Liverpool’s triple substitution introducing Cody Gakpo, Darwin Núñez, and Conor Bradley, it was Forest’s Anthony Elanga who set up Hudson-Odoi for a brilliant curling goal past Alisson. Liverpool failed to mount a significant comeback, and Forest held on for the win.
This result leaves Forest unbeaten in the Premier League so far, though they still trail Liverpool by a point on the table.
