Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo deserves huge credit for their start to the season.

All the talk was of Liverpool's unbeaten start under Slot - but Forest had not lost a Premier League game either.

And now they are the unbeaten ones.

Their first-half performance was solid and unspectacular. They frustrated Liverpool but did not have a single shot before the break.

Nuno's bravery swung the game Forest's way. He brought on Callum Hudson-Odoi and Anthony Elanga when the temptation might have been to shore things up - and it paid off.

Elanga found Hudson-Odoi for the goal.

Forest players went to celebrate with their fans at the end of their first win at Anfield since the first man landed on the Moon.
