Callum Hudson-Odoi came off the bench to score a brilliant goal, leading unbeaten Nottingham Forest to a stunning 1-0 victory over Liverpool at Anfield, halting Arne Slot’s perfect start as Reds manager.
Hudson-Odoi made an instant impact, cutting in from the left before curling a precise shot into the far bottom corner, beyond Alisson’s reach. The goal marked Forest’s first win at Anfield in any competition since 1969.
Liverpool entered the match with high confidence after three consecutive victories without conceding a goal. The home side had the better opportunities in the first half, with Luis Diaz coming closest, hitting the post with a powerful shot from a tight angle. Forest goalkeeper Matz Sels was also called into action, making a crucial save to deny Alexis Mac Allister’s header and nearly spilling a Diaz effort into his own net.
In the second half, Forest grew into the game, with Morgan Gibbs-White and Anthony Elanga missing chances before Hudson-Odoi’s stunning strike sealed the upset. Despite late efforts from the home side, Liverpool struggled to create clear chances for an equalizer.
The victory propels Forest into fourth place in the Premier League with two wins and two draws, while Liverpool sit just one point ahead of them.
