What happened. Liverpool drew 2-2 with Nottingham Forest, but Iraola was furious that a broken fourth official's board delayed his triple substitution, allowing Forest to take a quick throw-in that led to their penalty.

• Iraola couldn't make subs for three minutes due to board issue.
• Forest's quick throw-in led to Gibbs-White penalty.
• New signing Victor Munoz equalised for Liverpool.

“This cannot be a professional fourth official.”

— Andoni Iraola

Liverpool are set to complete Bradley Barcola's £123m signing within 24 hours.
