Alan Shearer claims referee Paul Tierney 'dropped a clanger' in the build-up to Liverpool's controversial win over Nottingham Forest

Match of The Day pundits Alan Shearer and Jermaine Jenas have claimed referee Paul Tierney made a mistake in the lead up to Liverpool's late win over Nottingham Forest.

Jurgen Klopp's men snatched all three points deep into injury-time thanks to a header by substitute Darwin Nunez.

However, controversy struck as play had stopped for a head injury to Ibrahima Konate over a minute earlier, as Callum Hudson-Odoi shaped to cross from a dangerous position. Konate recovered quickly and Tierney ruled that Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher should restart play.
