Andoni Iraola avoided defeat on his Anfield debut as Liverpool manager after Victor Munoz struck late to secure a 2-2 draw against Nottingham Forest.

Forest looked poised to claim a third consecutive league victory at Anfield after Dan Ndoye and Morgan Gibbs-White's penalty twice put the visitors ahead.

Alexander Isak restored parity early in the second half, but Forest regained the lead before Munoz's deflected effort rescued a point for Liverpool and extended Iraola's unbeaten start through his first two games in charge.

Liverpool will now turn their attention to Friday's trip to Ipswich, with Bradley Barcola potentially in line to make his debut.

The French winger has been one of Liverpool's leading transfer targets for several months, with reports suggesting the club are close to completing a 106 million pounds ($144 million) deal with Paris Saint-Germain. The transfer could rise by a further 17 million pounds ($23 million) with add-ons.
