  "account": "Florian Wirtz expressed his disappointment following Liverpool's 2-2 draw against Nottingham Forest at Anfield. The result, while salvaging a point for the Reds, raises more concerns about their defensive performance and ability to secure victories. Wirtz stated, \"I'm very disappointed. Of course we demand from ourselves the most. We couldn't take the three points again, that's why I'm disappointed. We have to keep working on the things we can do better and we have to get back to winning ways.\" The draw followed a first-half goal from Victor Munoz, who converted a chance assisted by Dan Ndoye in the 24th minute. Liverpool equalized through Alexander Isak late in the second half, but Morgan Gibbs-White's penalty restored Forest's lead, once again exposing defensive flaws that have plagued the team. Wirtz acknowledged the need to improve defensively, stating, \"I think we were doing better in the second half and then just after we scored, we conceded the penalty. This can happen, but not today. I’ve not seen the situation [back], I don’t know if it was a penalty or not, but I think the problem was probably before, that we came into this situation. We have to do better, defend quicker, be quicker in the positions.\" Despite the equalizer, Wirtz emphasized that more is needed from the team, stating, \"We want more, we don't want to be proud of that we came back into the game after we conceded, we want to be on top of the opponents and want to be better than them and take the wins.\"",
