Liverpool also drew 2-2 in Iraola’s first league match in charge, at Newcastle last weekend. Summer signing Víctor Muñoz ultimately earned a point for Liverpool, smashing in a shot off the crossbar in the 82nd minute after a through-ball from Florian Wirtz. Alexander Isak scored Liverpool’s first equalizer, while Dan Ndoye and Morgan Gibbs-White — from the penalty spot — netted for Forest. It was the first of four Premier League matches on Saturday, with Bournemouth hosting Everton, Hull at Coventry and Tottenham at home to Newcastle. ___ Steve Douglas is at https://twitter.com/sdouglas80 ___ See AP’s full soccer coverage here STEVE DOUGLAS Douglas is a Europe-based sports writer who has covered some of the world’s biggest events for The AP over the last 15 years, notably the men’s soccer World Cup final in 2022.
