Andoni Iraola expressed frustration following Nottingham Forest's penalty in the 2-2 draw against Liverpool at Anfield on Saturday. He claimed the penalty would not have occurred if the fourth official's electronic board had functioned properly.

Forest regained the lead in the match at 70 minutes, with Morgan Gibbs-White converting from the spot after Neco Williams was fouled by Alisson. During this time, Liverpool had been attempting a triple substitution for over two minutes, during which the ball had gone out of play three times.

Key moments included:

• 65:23 - Liam Delap substitutes for Dan Ndoye.
• 65:43 - Liverpool's three subs prepare to enter the game.
• 66:23 - The ball goes out for a Forest throw-in, delaying substitutions.

Iraola and substitute Ryan Gravenberch gestured in frustration as the fourth official, Tim Robinson, struggled with the electronic boards. Iraola stated, "Definitely he was having some problems with the board or something," during his post-match press conference.

The situation escalated as Liverpool's substitutions were repeatedly stalled, leading to a quick throw-in that resulted in the penalty awarded to Forest. Iraola lamented, "What would have happened if the board had been working?" He maintained that the substitutions should have been made earlier, emphasizing the impact of the delay on the game.

Despite Liverpool equalizing through Victor Munoz in the 82nd minute, Iraola remains winless as the Reds' boss after two matches in the Premier League. He concluded, "I can't explain because I don't have an explanation," regarding the substitution mishap.
