It was another special night at the City Ground, even if the Reds did well to hold on for a point, albeit against arguably the best team in Europe. Things got off to a flyer with Chris Wood's early strike, and Forest held their own until sub Diogo Jota scored with his first touch. Forest then had to show true grit and resilience (and some great saves from Matz Sels) to earn the point on a night that left players and fans exhausted.

Our match report is brought to you by The Maradona Of The Midlands and George Edwards, with a view from the away end coming from Neil Atkinson of the excellent Anfield Wrap (who you can also find on the Sports Social Podcast Network). We'll be back with our Friday 5 news roundup and Southampton preview at the end of the week.
