Nottingham Forest starting XI:

Matz Sels: Was commanding and it was his punt up the field that led to Ndoye's goal. Made a great save to deny Wirtz but was well-beaten by Gakpo's cross for Isak's leveller and had no chance with Munoz's strike. 5

Jair Cunha: Strong performance but will know he should have done better for Isak's goal. 6

Nikola Milenkovic: Part of a Forest backline that initially made it incredibly hard for Liverpool to break them down. 6

Murillo: Unafraid to drive with the ball and put in a solid shift but was well beaten by Munoz for the goal that made it 2-2. Still crucial that Forest keep him. 6

Ola Aina: Relentless all game. Was very involved, as always, and constantly asked questions of Liverpool. Nearly created a goal for Forest. 7

James McAtee: Getting his chance after Elliot Anderson's move to Manchester City and was very tidy on the ball in an impressive performance. Made some really good deliveries in the first half and battled well all afternoon. 7

Xaver Schlager: The summer signing came in for the injured Ibrahim Sangare and bar getting nutmegged early on by Dominik Szoboszlai, this was a good display from the Austrian midfielder. 7

Neco Williams: Like Aina, was full of energy down the opposite flank. Made a superb tackle early on to deny Gakpo. Was once on the Anfield books, and it was interesting to hear Steven Gerrard say pre-match that Liverpool should have kept him. Had a few defensive lapses but ultimately won the penalty that put Forest ahead for the second time. 7

Dan Ndoye: A wonderful finish past Alisson in the first half for what was his first Premier League goal in 377 days. 7

Morgan Gibbs-White: Quality on the ball and got the assist for Ndoye before dispatching his second-half penalty in style. Loves Anfield and how has five goal involvements (three goals, two assists) there. No Englishman has netted more Premier League goals overall this calendar year than his 13. 8

Igor Jesus: Had a great chance early on and his hold up play was brilliant for Ndoye's goal. Caused a nuisance for Liverpool's centre-backs all afternoon. 7

Nottingham Forest substitutes:

Subs:

Delap (on 66, Ndoye): 6

Netz (on 86, Aina): 5

Hudson-Odoi (on 90+2, McAtee): 5

Dominguez (on 90+2, Igor Jesus): 5

Subs not used: Victor, Diomande, Wood, Yates, Abbott.

Nottingham Forest manager Oliver Glasner, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "I think we all have the same feeling, proud of the performance, proud of how many chances we created and proud of the reaction after we conceded the equaliser.

"On the other side, we're all a little bit disappointed we couldn't get the win. I think this shows how good we performed, how well we played. Overall, a very good performance.

"I could see our tactical shape work well in many parts but after 60-65 minutes, the level drops a little bit. Which shows we everything is not 100% settled, it can't be after six or seven weeks together. Also, we conceded the same goal more or less, in the same area.

"We opened the middle and we know Liverpool always tries to pass into these gaps. Many of these situations, we avoided but in these two situations, it was the wrong behaviour and then you get punished when you play here at Anfield.

"What I loved most was how we played forward and created the chances, especially in the first half. I think we should have led by more than one goal.

"But again, it's still the beginning of the season. The beginning of the journey and this performance will give us confidence.

"I always hope the next time it will go quicker but, again, we could see many positive aspects. Many things that should and will give us confidence but it's important to stay humble and keep working hard."

On transfers: "I am [hopeful of new signings]. The club are working hard before closed doors, I'm confident we will have two signings. We have Liam [Delap] in and hopefully one more, potentially two.

"The club is doing a great job, working hard. We have another new start, integrating new players."

After back-to-back home defeats by Leeds to begin his reign, this was a huge step forward for Glasner's Forest.

It was a performance typified by the endeavours of Williams at wing-back, superb defensively while still providing a threat going forward.

Just seven minutes in, the former Liverpool player came across well from left wing-back to tackle Gakpo, who otherwise would have been eight yards out with the goal at his mercy, and did not look back.

Such tackles were a feature of an excellent display, while there was no hesitation to burst forward when he sensed the opportunity from the throw-in that led to the penalty.

Liverpool were on their heels, Williams was not.

With Gibbs-White dictating things in the final third - and both Ndoye and Igor Jesus causing problems - there was plenty for Glasner to enjoy.

The wait for a first win goes on but, on this showing, not for much longer.
