Victor Munoz scored a goal during his debut to secure a point for Liverpool in their home match against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League. The Spanish winger equalized the game after Morgan Gibbs-White's penalty had put Liverpool in a strong position. Forest took the lead midway through the first half through Dan Ndoye, who capitalized on a mistake in the Liverpool defense.
Alexander Isak also put Forest ahead in the hour mark after Cody Gakpo's pinpoint cross. However, Liverpool fought back, and Alisson was penalized for a handball after a quick throw-in by Forest's new record signing, Liam Delap. Gibbs-White converted the spot kick to make it 1-1. Despite the equalizer, neither team could find a winner, leaving both managers without a win since taking charge in the summer.
Forest dominated the second half and looked more likely to score, but they couldn't capitalize on their chances. Liverpool's Alisson was instrumental in preventing a second-half comeback, pushing away Igor Jesus' effort in first-half stoppage time. The game ended in a draw, with both sides disappointed as they sought their first win of the season.
