Liverpool managed to take important and easy three points, beating Nottingham Forest 3-0 in their home game of the 10th Premier League round.
The Reds were without Luis Diaz, who is dealing with dramatic events in his family after his parents were kidnapped last nigh and his dad still missing.
Liverpool dominated the first half, but opened in the 31st minute when they unleashed a quick counter-attack. Salah played a pass to Nunez and he had a good shot which was saved away by Turner. The ball, though, bounced in the way of Jota, who sent it into the empty goal for 1:0 and lifted Luis Diaz’s jersey.
