Former Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi scored the only goal as Nottingham Forest stunned Arne Slot's Liverpool at Anfield.
Liverpool's perfect start to the season was sensationally halted as Nottingham Forest pulled off a stunning 1-0 upset at Anfield
Much has been made of Liverpool's attacking threat, including Diogo Jota, Luis Diaz and the iconic Mohamed Salah. Still, they struggled to make inroads and were neutralised by Nottingham Forest's stubborn defense in the first half.
Alex Moreno expertly marshaled Salah and Diaz had a tough time on the left, leading to his substitution on the hour.
The Reds did have their moments, though - Luis Diaz's strike against the post and Matz Sels' dramatic goalmouth scramble being the most notable.
Arne Slot's triple substitution on the hour mark failed to yield immediate dividends, but Nuno Espírito Santo's introduction of Hudson-Odoi proved a masterstroke.
The winger's sumptuous curler beyond Alisson stunned Anfield, marking the first goal conceded under Slot's tenure.
Forest defended strongly and could have added a second at the other end, with Alisson denying Anthony Elanga late on.
The expected Liverpool onslaught never materialised, and the visitors claimed a richly deserved victory.
This result keeps Forest unbeaten in the top flight, albeit a point behind Liverpool in the table.
