  • Liverpool drew 2-2 with Nottingham Forest at Anfield, marking their second consecutive draw in the Premier League season.
  • The team twice came from behind, with Victor Muรฑoz scoring a late equalizer.
  • Manager Andoni Iraola is still seeking his first league win with Liverpool.

Liverpool's search for their first victory of the season continues after a frustrating 2-2 draw against Nottingham Forest at Anfield. The Reds were forced to twice come from behind to salvage a point, with Victor Muรฑoz scoring a late equalizer to deny Forest a win.

The match saw Nottingham Forest take the lead in the 24th minute through Dan Ndoye's precise 20-yard strike following a swift attack. Liverpool struggled defensively in the first half, and a goal from Florian Wirtz was disallowed for offside. The hosts eventually found their equalizer in the 60th minute when Cody Gakpo set up Alexander Isak at the far post.

However, Nottingham Forest regained the lead ten minutes later. Alisson was penalized for fouling Nec Williams in the penalty area, and Morgan Gibbs-White converted the resulting spot-kick. Liverpool managed to avoid defeat in the closing stages, with Muรฑoz breaking into the box and scoring off the crossbar for the final 2-2 scoreline.

This result means Liverpool has secured only two points from their opening two league matches, with both games ending in draws where they scored two goals. Manager Andoni Iraola is yet to register his first league win since taking charge, adding pressure on the team as the season progresses. The draw leaves Liverpool in a precarious position early in the campaign.
