Liverpool ace takes aim at Nottingham Forest for one thing they did in shock Anfield win
Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker criticized Nottingham Forest’s tactics following their surprising defeat at Anfield.
The Reds experienced their first loss under Arne Slot due to Callum Hudson-Odoi’s second-half goal, which maintained Forest’s unbeaten start and was the first goal Slot’s side has conceded this season.
Liverpool and Slot were caught off guard by the defeat, struggling to break down a Forest defense that effectively neutralized their attacking threat. The Reds, coming off the international break, lacked sharpness, with passes often going astray and few chances created.
Alisson expressed frustration over losing points at home and criticized Forest’s defensive approach. “It’s disappointing to drop points at home, but the opponent was focused solely on defending and playing long balls,” he said. “We made it too easy for them when they scored, and defensively, we were poor. We didn’t create enough and lacked quality and energy today. It was a frustrating afternoon where we lost three unnecessary points.”
Alisson and the team will want to quickly move past this setback. Slot now faces the challenge of responding to this defeat, which came after a strong run of form. Liverpool’s schedule remains demanding, with a Champions League match against Milan on Tuesday and a league game against Bournemouth next weekend.
