were incensed that their own attack had been thwarted. The owner of Nottingham Forest ‘confronts referee along corridor’.
After Liverpool’s late winner at the City Ground, enraged Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis reportedly confronted referee Paul Tierney in the tunnel, requiring security to restrain him.
Darwin Nunez, a substitute, scored in the ninth minute of extra time—after at least eight had been allowed—to give the Reds a commanding three-point lead in the title battle and deflect one point from their relegation-threatened opponents.
However, Forest was furious because Tierney had interrupted play when Forest was on the attack because Ibrahima Konate had suffered a head injury. Nunez headed home an Alexis Mac Allister cross as Liverpool advanced up the pitch and eventually took the lead as he resumed with an unopposed drop ball.
