Liverpool Held to 2-2 at Anfield as Víctor Muñoz Nets Late Equaliser

The late goal leaves Liverpool with two points from two matches and heightens scrutiny of Andoni Iraola’s early run as manager.

Overview

  • Nottingham Forest took the lead through Dan Ndoye before Alexander Isak levelled for Liverpool in the 60th minute and Morgan Gibbs-White restored Forest’s lead from a penalty in the 70th minute.
  • Víctor Muñoz scored a well-taken equaliser in the 82nd minute after a Florian Wirtz assist to rescue a point for Liverpool at Anfield.
  • Andoni Iraola made his home debut as Liverpool manager in the match, with Alexis Mac Allister starting and being substituted in the 77th minute while Nicolás Domínguez came on late for Forest.
  • After the final whistle Isak tried to gift his shirt to a child but an adult grabbed it; stadium security intervened and returned the shirt, a moment that quickly went viral and drew broad online condemnation.
  • The draw leaves Liverpool on two points from two games, continues a recent run of poor home results against Forest, and raises fresh questions about attacking options and pressure on Iraola in the weeks ahead.
