  • Vitor Pereira makes Nottingham Forest impact but where will goals come from?
    Feb 23 2026
    Nottingham Forest were beaten 1-0 by Liverpool at the City Ground as they failed to make first half domination count before conceding a painful stoppage time winner. The level of performance bodes well for the run in at the bottom of the Premier League but Forest's lack of goals is a massive red flag. Matt Davies is joined by Michael Temple, Pete Blackburn and former Reds winger Franz Carr to reflect on the game and the relegation picture. #nffc #nottinghamforest 🙏 Do like and subscribe to our channel.

  • Nottingham Forest 0 Liverpool 1 match verdict | Gutted!
    Feb 22 2026
    Nottingham Forest lost 1-0 to Liverpool in Vitor Pereira's first Premier League game in charge in agonising fashion after Alexis MacAllister scored a late, late winner. Forest had seen West Ham draw with Bournemouth on Saturday as the gap to the relegation zone was trimmed to two points and having played well at the City Ground the gap remains the same. Forest will rue not taking advantage of a strong first half before fading after the break. Matt Davies is joined by Simon Fotheringham and Paul Morley to discuss the game in full from 6.30pm. #nffc #nottinghamforest 🙏 Do like and subscribe to our channel.
