Mohamed Salah scores winner as Liverpool edge past Nottingham Forest

Liverpool forward Diogo Jota is making up for lost time after his double against Nottingham Forest made it four goals in six days after a year-long barren spell.However, the Reds' latest win was littered with defensive lapses and, after the visitors quickly equalised twice through former Liverpool defender Neco Williams and Morgan Gibbs-White, it needed the reliable left boot of Mohamed Salah to secure victory.Even then Liverpool's progress to within six points of fourth-placed Newcastle was almost dashed when Brennan Johnson lobbed Alisson Becker – but was denied by the crossbar.Jota justified Jurgen Klopp’s decision to name an unchanged side for the third successive game running for the first time since January 2020 as his mini-revival continued.The Portugal international, who due to injury made just ten appearances in the first six months of the season, ended his drought with two in Monday’s 6-1 demolition of Leeds and repeated the feat to increase the pressure on fellow relegation strugglers Forest, who have now lost their last six away matches and dropped to second-bottom as a result.In line with Liverpool’s recent return to form, Trent Alexander-Arnold, in his new hybrid right-back-cum-midfield role, was at the heart of their best work but unlike at Elland Road where he picked apart the naive hosts it was his enduring set-piece quality which created the most danger.Yet the first half, in which they enjoyed 86% possession but had only a header from Virgil van Dijk tipped over by goalkeeper Keylor Navas and Jota nodding wastefully wide to show for their efforts, gave no indication of the chaos which was to follow after the interval.Forest, who had to replace the injured Scott McKenna with Joe Worrall on the half-hour
