The Premier League clash at the City Ground was heading towards a draw when the league leaders bagged a dramatic late winner.

As the clock ticked down in extra time, Ibrahim Konate went down with an apparent head injury.

However, he quickly recovered as ref Tierney opted for a drop-ball at the feet of Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher.

Forest were left fuming at the decision.

But they were even more angry when Nunez was played in, with the striker going on to hit the back of the net.

First-team coach Steven Reid was sent off as Marinakis put on an angry display in the stands.

Furious Forest fans also chanted “cheat” as proceedings drew to a close.

And it was at this stage that Marinakis, along with dismissed coach Reid, allegedly chased after Tierney down the tunnel to the referees’ office.
