EPL: Liverpool in shock defeat to Forest as Man Utd, Man City win
Liverpool’s perfect start to the season ends as they fell to a 1-0 shock defeat to Nottingham Forest in a Premier League game at Anfield on Saturday.
Callum Hudson-Odoi and unbeaten Nottingham Forest stunned their hosts, with Super Eagles defender Ola Aina also in action for Forest.
It was Hudson-Odoi who cut in from the left and curled an inch-perfect shot into the far bottom corner, which Alisson could not reach.
The defeat was a shock to Liverpool who had gone three games before today without conceding a goal this season.
