7 min: The corner is low and a waster, not beating the first man. Pereira reaches for his notebook.
6 min: Anderson’s ball to Hudson-Odoi sees Konate come across to clean up, and a corner results, Forest’s first.
5 min: Gakpo, who seems ever all but ever present, chases the ball down the channels. When Salah gets chance to make an incursion, his touch is loose. As it often is these days, sadly.
3 min: Pressure put on Virgil van Dijk gives Forest a glimmer, and then the ball comes back to Forest. Hudson-Odoi takes the ball down, shoots and Alisson comes to the rescue. That was close. It could have been much better than close.
2 min: Liverpool settle into some early possession. It’s loud at the City Ground which is louder these days than it often was in days of yore.
