'It's a shame' - Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson says Nottingham Forest 'only wanted to defend' as Reds suffer first defeat under new boss Arne Slot

Premier League

Liverpool

Bournemouth

Brighton

Nottingham Forest

<p>The Reds suffered their first defeat of the Arne Slot era on Saturday as they surprisingly <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/liverpool-player-ratings-vs-nottingham-forest-mohamed-salah-stinker-arne-slot/bltf4a1f914e6fd31e1" target="_blank">went down 1-0 against Nottingham Forest</a> in the Premier League. Former Chelsea star Callum Hudson-Odoi grabbed the winner in the 72nd minute as Forest extended their unbeaten run in the current campaign. </p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The Reds custodian was understandably frustrated after dropping three points at Anfield as he claimed the team lacked quality on the pitch. He also accused the opponent of adopting an ultra-defensive approach in the match and constantly playing long balls which affected their gameplay.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Speaking to reporters after the match, the Brazilian said: "It was a shame, losing points at home is not good at all but the opponent today only wanted to defend and play for the long ball. We gave them that too easily when they scored, it was poor defensively from us.</p><p>"We couldn't create much, we had a lack of quality today, we needed more energy. It is three points we have lost today unnecessarily. All the opportunities we had were not clear enough and they defended great, they threw themselves in front of the ball."</p>

WHAT ALISSON SAID

<p>The Merseyside giants will be next seen in action on Tuesday night as they kick off their Champions League 2024-25 journey against AC Milan in Italy.</p>
