Forest will create great atmosphere - Klopp

Nottingham Forest ended their 10-game winless streak in style as Taiwo Awoniyi returned to haunt former club Liverpool and stop their Premier League revival.

Awoniyi was on the books at Anfield for six years without ever playing for them, but showed Jurgen Klopp what he was all about, securing a famous 1-0 win that lifts Forest off the bottom of the table after his second-half goal.

Forest beat Liverpool at the City Ground in their first ever Premier League match 30 years ago and this victory will be just as memorable as it is their first three points since August and will provide hope that they can make a fist of their return to the big time after picking up just three points from their last 27 available.

Follow all the reaction from the City Ground after Nottingham Forest took on Liverpool in Saturday’s early kick off:

GOAL! Chelsea 1-0 Man Utd (Jorginho, 87’)⚽️

87 mins: Jorginho does his characteristic skip and jump waiting for David De Gea to drop to his right before slotting the ball to the goalkeeper’s left.

Chelsea have the advantage late in the game at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea 0-0 Man Utd

85 mins: Huge drama! The Manchester United players continue to protest but this one is a clear decision. Fred is booked for dissent and there’s a delay in taking the spot kick.

VAR isn’t coming to Man Utd’s rescue. Jorginho has the chance to give Chelsea the win...

Penalty to Chelsea!

Chelsea 0-0 Man Utd

84 mins: Pulisic sends a cross into the box that Shaw turns behind. The Chelsea players try to get the crowd worked up in preparation of the set piece.

Chilwell sends the ball into the area and Armando Broja goes down!

Scott McTominy grabs hold of him and the referee points to the penalty spot!

Chelsea 0-0 Man Utd

81 mins: Armando Broja and Carney Chukwuemenka are both introduced into the Chelsea team with Raheem Sterling and Ruben Loftus-Cheek taken off.

Anthony Elanga and Scott McTominay come on for Man Utd replacing Christian Eriksen and Marcus Rashford.

There’s less than 10 minutes to play now so can someone go on to earn a winner.

Chelsea 0-0 Man Utd

78 mins: Bruno Fernandes has a go from range and forces Kepa Arrizabalaga into a low save to cover the gap at the near post. He spills the ball though and it goes out for a corner.

Eriksen swings it into the middle but doesn’t beat the man at the near post.

Chelsea 0-0 Man Utd

75 mins: Christian Pulisic comes on to replace Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang for Chelsea. There’s 15 minutes ot play at Stamford Bridge and after United’s early dominance it’s the home side who look the most likely to go on and win this game.

Chelsea 0-0 Man Utd

72 mins: Dalot turns the ball behind for a Chelsea corner with Chilwell and Mount deciding who’s going to take it. It’s left to Chilwell who whips it over to the back post where Chalobah rises above Fred and heads his effort onto the top of the crossbar!

Chelsea 0-0 Man Utd

69 mins: Chelsea are continuing to get on top but United win the ball in midfield and get men up the pitch. Fernandes tries to slip Rashford in behind but Trevoh Chalobah lunges at the ball and intercepts the pass.

Chelsea boot the ball clear and look to build an attack of their own.

Chelsea 0-0 Man Utd

66 mins: Chelsea are on the ascendancy working the ball nicely down the right side. Sterling has a cross cleared but the Blues recover it off Rashford and feed the ball over to Loftus-Cheek.

He puts another ball into the middle but Shaw gets there and nods it behind for a corner.

Michael Jones22 October 2022 18:53

Chelsea 0-0 Man Utd

63 mins: Eriksen picks out Fred on the front edge of the box and Luke Shaw comes forward on an overlapping run. Fred decides to go for goal, I think. His effort looks more like a hybrid cross/shot but in any case it flies wide without troubling Kepa Arrizabalaga.
