The late, late show from Liverpool, yet again, will be among the most talked about individual moments of the season. Liverpool have scored 10 league goals after the prescribed 90 minutes have come and gone in this campaign that has won them seven extra points.
They have shipped only two after the allocated 90. You could also add the three extra points they won against Fulham in December, when they were 3-2 down with 88 minutes on the clock, but still clawed it back.
These two extra points at Nottingham Forest were crucial, not just because of the time of the game and the time of the season, but also because of the awful refereeing decision that led to that Darwin Nunez winner.
Many will smell conspiracy; the big teams seem to benefit far more regularly than those struggling to survive. But I honestly believe this was nothing more than a genuine, if colossal, error. It was bad enough that the referee gave the drop ball to Liverpool when he shouldn’t have, but the fact that the assistant referees on both sides missed it too compounded it to the edge of credibility.
The VAR was otherwise involved in the Ibrahima Konate head injury incident, so at least they had an excuse.
The reality is that it was a hugely pressured situation. The clock was running down, many decisions had to be made, the referee was spinning a dozen plates with decisions, timings and VAR pressing down on him.
It felt personal to Forest, but it wasn’t. Liverpool can point to a terrible decision earlier in the season that cost them dear against Tottenham, so it is a case of some you win and some you lose. It doesn’t feel that way to Forest, whose seasons may also be defined by the point they unfairly lose.
