It was clear to everyone in the stadium where the Liverpool full-back was aiming to put the ball, but Rangers goalkeeper McGregor, or the players in the wall, could do nothing to stop the strike.
Liverpool remained in control after the goal, as the pattern of the match stayed the same. Rangers sat in a low block and invited the home side to try to break them down.
Klopp's side created a couple of openings but were let down by poor finishing from Nunez. The Uruguayan had three attempts on Rangers' goal in the first period, but McGregor saved every shot.
Nunez, 23, was working hard, yet nothing was working out for him. The former Benfica striker, Liverpool's record signing, hit all of his shots straight at Rangers' 40-year-old goalkeeper and never appeared to pick his spot.
He lost the ball more times than any other player on the pitch in the first half (5) and had the worst pass accuracy of any Liverpool player in the opening period.
It could be a question of nerves after his big-money move, but Nunez looked did not look like an elite striker on a frustrating evening for the Uruguayan.
