Nottingham Forest manager Sean Dyche said his players had embraced the ugly side of the game after their physicality and defensive graft helped them to a stunning 3-0 win over Liverpool at Anfield on Saturday.

Goals from Murillo, Nicolo Savona and Morgan Gibbs-White handed defending champions Liverpool a sixth defeat in seven league games and their heaviest home league loss in more than a decade.

Dyche has guided Forest out of the relegation zone and up to 16th in the table since replacing Ange Postecoglou in October. They have two wins, a draw and one loss in his four league games in charge.

"Of course it is to be enjoyed, it is for the fans and the players, but we have to go again. Everything's not solved but it's a good, strong marker about this group," Dyche told reporters.
