I think it had the feel of an old fashioned FA Cup tie. It had the lot. Forest did really well.
They battled ever so well throughout the entire match, but if you look at the statistics at the end, to be quite honest, Liverpool should have put it to bed much earlier. Our quality in the last third was so poor. That’s the only reason why we didn’t win comfortably.
The effort in the first half was very good. They worked their socks off. If that had been the full first team on paper, it would have been over in the first half. Jurgen made seven changes out of 11 and there were a few players who didn’t hit the spot.
