Just when it seemed nothing was dropping for Liverpool in a captivating contest, Arne Slot turned to his substitutes' bench midway through the second half and exhibited his seemingly golden touch.

Jota rises to help Reds peg back feisty Forest after early Wood scare

Kostas Tsimikas and Diogo Jota entered, the former teeing up the latter at a corner to equalise courtesy of their first touches. It was Liverpool's first shot on target and the first goal Nottingham Forest had conceded in more than 500 minutes of action. For Forest, this is simply a ride supporters do not want to step off. This was another resounding display under Nuno Espírito Santo, another impressive step in an extraordinary season and a point lifts them to second, six points behind the pacesetters, who also have a game in hand. On this evidence, we may just have a title race, especially with both Chelsea and Manchester City dropping more points.
