  "account": "Victor Munoz came to the rescue in Liverpool's 2-2 draw against Nottingham Forest, preventing the English giants from suffering their first loss as manager Andoni Iraola takes charge. Forest had seemed set to win their third consecutive victory at Anfield, with Dan Ndoye and Morgan Gibbs-White scoring twice in the first half. Alexander Isak briefly leveled the score for Liverpool before Munoz scored a deflected goal to secure a point for the visitors – a late save that echoed his previous effort in Iraola's first Liverpool match. Iraola admitted that Liverpool's first half was poor, lacking control, but praised his team's improvement in the second half. The France winger could yet be on the move, with a £106 million move to Paris Saint-Germain reportedly near completion. Hull, meanwhile, extended their dream return to the Premier League with a 1-0 victory over Coventry, Liam Millar scoring in the closing moments. Hull, promoted from the Championship last season, have won both of their games since August 2022, with Sergej Jakirovic's side now awaiting their first Premier League point since 2016-17. Elsewhere, Everton drew 1-1 with Everton, and Bournemouth fell 2-1 to leaders Manchester City.",
