Premier League: Mohamed Salah fires Liverpool 16 points clear, Nottingham Forest beat Manchester City | Football News

Published by Parlour News

Premier League leaders Liverpool needed two Mohamed Salah penalties to beat bottom-of-the-table Southampton 3-1 on Saturday, while Nottingham Forest took a giant step towards the Champions League with a 1-0 win over Manchester City. Premier League: Mohamed Salah has fired Liverpool 16 points clear in the title race. (AFP) Liverpool stretched their lead at the top to a massive 16 points, despite a sloppy first 45 minutes. Fresh from a smash-and-grab 1-0 Champions League victory over Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool boss Arne Slot made just three changes. However, the Dutchman was forced into making three half-time alterations to kickstart the champions-elect. Southampton have taken just nine points from 28 games all season, but stunned Anfield when Will Smallbone fired the visitors in front in first-half stoppage time. Alisson Becker was Liverpool’s hero at the Parc des Princes on Wednesday but the Brazilian and Virgil van Dijk got in each other’s way to allow Smallbone to roll into an unguarded net. Slot turned to Harvey Elliott, Alexis MacAllister and Andy Robertson at the break, and the changes …

Nottingham Forest’s Callum Hudson-Odoi dealt a major blow to Manchester City’s top 4 hopes as his 83rd minute strike helped his club move closer to a Champions League spot next year. With the win, Forest stayed firm at the 3rd place with 51 points while current 4th placed City have Chelsea breathing down their necks with the Stamford Bridge outfit having one game in hand. The winger picked up a glorious diagonal pass from Morgan Gibbs-White before running into the box and beating City goalkeeper Ederson at his near post from a tight angle. In a game of few chances, Pep Guardiola’s City team came closest when Nico Gonzalez’ long-range shot scraped the outside of the post, while Hudson-Odoi saw a curled effort pushed onto the post by Ederson. Story continues below this ad Forest was deducted points last season for breaching the league’s financial rules and avoided the drop by just six points.

Matz Sels’ save edged the shootout 5-4 in Forest’s favour to set up a last eight trip to Brighton.© AFP Nottingham Forest needed penalties to beat Ipswich and book a place in the FA Cup quarter-finals on Monday after a 1-1 draw at the City Ground. Jack Taylor was the only man who failed to score from the spot as Matz Sels’ save edged the shootout 5-4 in Forest’s favour to set up a last eight trip to Brighton. The sides are separated by 15 places and 31 points in the Premier League, but with Forest’s priority securing Champions League football next season, Nuno Espirito Santo rested a number of his key players. Ipswich sensed their opportunity and took the lead early in the second half when George Hirst headed in a corner at the back post. Ryan Yates took advantage of some woeful defending to nod in an equaliser 22 minutes from time. An extra 30 minutes of extra-time came and went without a winner despite Nuno sending on top scorer Chris …

Manchester United, Spurs Sink Again As Nottingham Forest Maintain Premier League Title Dream

Published by Webster

Manchester United slumped to a 3-1 defeat at home to Brighton as Old Trafford remembered the legendary Denis Law on Sunday, while Tottenham’s troubles also persist after they lost 3-2 at Everton. Nottingham Forest maintained an unlikely title challenge with a 3-2 victory over Southampton to take Nuno Espirito Santo’s men level with second-placed Arsenal and within six points of Liverpool. United, by contrast, are 24 points adrift of the leaders and focused on mere survival after Brighton stormed Old Trafford for the third consecutive season. Ruben Amorim‘s men looked to have turned a corner after a thrilling 2-2 draw at Liverpool was followed by knocking Arsenal out of the FA Cup earlier this month. But after Amad Diallo’s late hat-trick papered over the cracks in a 3-1 win over bottom-of-the-table Southampton in midweek, Brighton exposed the glaring holes in the foundations of Amorim‘s United project. Kaoru Mitoma squared for Yankuba Minteh to open the scoring inside five minutes. Bruno Fernandes’ penalty levelled for United before the break. Mitoma restored Brighton’s lead on …

Manchester City Find Winning Formula As Nottingham Forest Go Second In Premier League

Published by Webster

Struggling Manchester City beat Leicester 2-0 on Sunday to notch just their second win in 14 games as Nottingham Forest climbed to second in the Premier League table. Ange Postecoglou suffered the intense frustration of watching his Tottenham side concede a late goal to draw 2-2 with rejuvenated Wolves. Defending champions City travelled to the King Power drained of confidence after just one win in all competitions since late October. Their frailties over the past two months, which resulted in nine defeats in their previous 13 games, were on display again. But Savinho’s first-half goal and an Erling Haaland header after the break earned a much-needed three points. Leicester provided a stern test and might feel they could have got something out of the match as Facundo Buonanotte hit the post and Jamie Vardy missed a key chance at 1-0 down. City’s bid for a fifth straight title looks to be over as they are 11 points behind leaders Liverpool, who have played two games fewer. But the result lifts them to fifth …

Chris Wood Brace Fires Nottingham Forest As Leicester Boss Steve Cooper Loses Reunion

Chris Wood struck twice in Nottingham Forest’s 3-1 win at Leicester as the New Zealand striker condemned Foxes boss Steve Cooper to defeat against his former club on Friday. Ryan Yates put Forest ahead in the East Midlands derby at the King Power Stadium before Jamie Vardy levelled for Leicester. The in-form Wood restored Forest’s lead and netted again with his seventh goal in nine matches this season. Forest’ second successive victory lifted them into fifth place in the Premier League. They have lost just once in nine league games this term, proving their decision to sack Cooper and hire Nuno Espirito Santo was a shrewd move. Cooper was facing Forest for the first time since his dismissal in December. The 44-year-old spent two years in charge of Forest, guiding them from the bottom of the Championship back to the Premier League after a 23-year absence before being axed with the club just above the relegation zone. Nuno saved Forest from the drop, while Cooper was hired by promoted Leicester in the close-season …

At the time, Nuno Espirito Santo’s side were embroiled in a tense relegation fight with Everton, Luton and several other teams. After the game, Forest posted on their official X account: “Three extremely poor decisions – three penalties not given – which we simply cannot accept. “We warned the PGMOL that the VAR (Attwell) is a Luton fan before the game but they didn’t change him.

Noni Madueke’s equaliser rescued Chelsea in a 1-1 draw against 10-man Nottingham Forest that ended the Blues’ five-match winning run on Sunday. Enzo Maresca‘s side fell behind to Chris Wood‘s strike early in the second half at Stamford Bridge. England winger Madueke hauled Chelsea level but the hosts couldn’t find a winner despite their numerical advantage in the closing stages. Forest had to play the last 12 minutes with 10 men after James Ward-Prowse was sent off. Chelsea had won their previous three league games — and five in all competitions — to raise hopes that Maresca is the man to lift the west Londoners out of their long malaise. Being held by Forest was a setback but Chelsea still go into the international break in fourth place in the Premier League. Maresca insists Chelsea are not ready to compete with Manchester City and Arsenal for the title, but they have established themselves as candidates for a top four finish. The Italian demonstrated Chelsea’s enviable strength in depth by fielding an entirely changed …
