Liverpool fans were treated to yet another heart-stopping moment as Darwin Nunez netted a last-minute goal against Forest, securing their second victory in less than a week. The striker, who was initially ridiculed by the opposing fans, had the perfect response by delivering a brilliant flicked on header in the 99th minute.
The atmosphere at the City Ground was electric as fans from both sides anxiously awaited the final whistle. Forest fans were hopeful that they could salvage a point against the formidable Liverpool, but Nunez had other plans. Just when it seemed like the match would end in a draw, Nunez rose above the defense and expertly redirected the ball into the net, sending the away end into a frenzy of celebration.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was delighted with Nunez’s performance and praised his ability to stay composed under pressure. “Honestly, I’d not sing a song like that,” Klopp commented on the earlier heckling Nunez received. “I would never try to wind Darwin up!” Nunez proved his worth with his sensational goal, showing that he could not be underestimated.
The assist for Nunez’s goal also deserves recognition. Alexis Mac Allister demonstrated remarkable composure as he delivered a perfectly timed pass to Nunez. While others might have rushed the play with the full-time whistle looming, Mac Allister remained calm and made a crucial contribution to the goal.

Bloxam summed up the sentiment felt by many Liverpool supporters, saying, “These are the days, Reds. Soak it up, every single moment.”
