Nigeria and Nottingham Forest forward Taiwo Awoniyi helped his team put an end to Forest’s 10-game winless streak as they continue their fight to move off the foot of the Premier leage table.
Following a goalless first half, Awoniyi, who left Liverpool in 2021 without playing a competitive game, put Steve Cooper’s ahead in the 55th minute off a rebound.
With the goal, Awoniyi became the first Nottingham Forest player to score in each of his first three Premier League starts at the City Ground.
The defeat for Liverpool is yet another setback for Jurgen Klopp side in what has been a bumpy season so far.
