Salah gives the ball away and Forest surge forward. Two passes, the second a slide-rule pass from Elanga, and Chris Wood, who else, is through - he strikes it early with his left foot from the left of the goal and it flies into Alisson’s far corner. Superb finish.

At the time, the 1-0 loss in September was considered a major shock as a team who finished 17th last season registered their first win at Anfield since 1969.
