As the game drew to a close in stoppage time, Jurgen Klopp bellowed to the fourth official “It’s unbelievable! Honestly!”<\/p>\n

Steve Cooper’s Nottingham Forest were a match for Liverpool at the City Ground. And not in that patronising way where the bigger side was lazy and the plucky underdogs scrapped with them.<\/p>\n
