Liverpool opened the match with impressive intensity. Inside the first 10 minutes, Cody Gakpo and Alexis Mac Allister nearly engineered an early breakthrough, but Elliot Anderson\u2019s heroic last-ditch block<\/strong> kept Forest in the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moments later, Mohamed Salah dazzled with a trademark weaving run past three defenders, setting up Milos Kerkez\u2014who unfortunately fired over. Despite dominating possession and territory, Liverpool\u2019s inability to finish would soon come back to haunt them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
