Liverpool players celebrate

Liverpool are through to the Champions League final even though they lost their second leg semi-final against Roma.

It started well, with Sadio Mane firing in an early goal.

Roma were given some hope with an unfortunate own goal by Liverpool's James Milner.

But Jurgen Klopp's side soon responded with a goal from Georginio Wijnaldum, making it 2-1.

The action was far from over as Roma scored another 3 goals to make it 4-2.

However, because Liverpool had won the first leg at Anfield 5-2, that made the aggregate score 7-6. And that means they reach the Champions League Final.

Liverpool will now face Real Madrid in the final.
