Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool beat Nuno’s Nottingham Forest away from home at the City Ground in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.
Liverpool are aiming to win the Premier League title this season and headed into the match against Nottingham Forest as favourites.
Even though Forest were playing at the City Ground, they were the underdogs. They have/had an inferior team and are also in real danger of getting relegated to the Championship.
In the end, Liverpool got the job done 1-0. Darwin Nunez found the back of the net in the ninth minute of injury time.
Praise for Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister vs Nottingham Forest
While the striker will get all the headlines now for scoring a massive goal for Liverpool in their quest to win the Premier League title this season, former Manchester City defender Nedum Onuoha has praised another player from the visiting team.
Alexis Mac Allister provided the assist for Nunez’s goal, and the BBC Sport pundit has noted how good the £35 million (BBC Sport) Argentina international midfielder is.
Onuoha said about Mac Allister on Final Score on BBC One: “Alexis Mac Allister is quality. He carries himself like a World Cup winner.
“It was in the 99th minute of the game. It just goes to show that it’s never over with Liverpool.”
My View: Alexis Mac Allister an important player for Liverpool
In my opinion, Alexis Mac Allister is one of the best and most important players for Liverpool.
Mac Allister joined Liverpool from Premier League rivals Brighton and Hove Albion in the summer transfer window.
The 25-year-old midfielder did not take any time to settle into life at Anfield and has been superb for Jurgen Klopp’s side this season. He is rated very highly by Klopp.
Mac Allister has made 21 starts and one substitute appearance in the Premier League for Liverpool this season. The Argentine star has scored two goals and given four assists in those games.
