Head coach Steve Cooper says building on a memorable win over Liverpool cannot “just be words” for Nottingham Forest.
The Reds brought an end to a run of nine league games without a victory by seeing off Jurgen Klopp’s side 1-0 amid a frenzied atmosphere at the City Ground. Taiwo Awoniyi’s second half goal proved to be the difference between the two sides, although chances came at both ends of the pitch.
Dean Henderson had to make a couple of big saves to notch a second successive clean-sheet. But Morgan Gibbs-White, Brennan Johnson and Ryan Yates all had opportunities to extend the hosts’ advantage.
