Iraola awaits first win as Liverpool rescue late draw against Forest

Liverpool drew 2-2 with Nottingham Forest at Anfield. The visitors took the lead through Dan Ndoye and extended their advantage with a Morgan Gibbs-White penalty in the 70th minute. Alexander Isak scored for Liverpool to level the game before Gibbs-White's penalty, and Victor Munoz scored a late goal to rescue a draw for the home side, according to the New Straits Times.

Andoni Iraola, Liverpool's new manager, is still searching for his first Premier League win with the club. He expressed frustration with the substitution process, which was delayed due to technical issues with the fourth official's board, as reported by Yahoo Sports. Iraola stated that he had wanted to make substitutions about three minutes before the penalty was awarded.

The draw follows a 2-2 draw at Newcastle in Iraola's first game as Liverpool boss last weekend. The Channel News Asia reported that Iraola believes the foundations of his new-look side are beginning to take shape, and that he is implementing a style that involves playing on the front foot, attacking at pace, and pressing relentlessly.
