Porto 1-4 Liverpool (agg 1-6)
Liverpool
Image source, Getty ImagesLiverpool boss Jurgen Klopp, speaking to BT Sport: "We played better this season. It was always going to be a whirlwind here and that was what it was. Second half the energy level dropped for Porto and we could control the game and score the goals.
"We are more experienced, that is clear. We had difficult away games and we knew it would be the same as at City and Roma last year. It is all good. A difficult game but we go to the semi-finals.
"It is first time for me to play Barcelona, apart from in friendlies. I am looking forward to that."

Porto 1-4 Liverpool (agg 1-6)
Liverpool
Image source, Getty ImagesLiverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson on BT Sport: "They are a good a team, they made it intense and the lads dug in and defended really well. They had some half chances. You could see the effort that we put in. I was warming up when Sadio [Mane] scored and I thought it was a goal. I think I was the only one.
"Thankfully it was given and it gave us a real boost coming in at half time.
"When I came on I tried to keep the ball and be sensible. Joe [Gomez] made a great run [for Roberto Firmino's goal], I just tried to hit an area and it's a great finish from Bobby,
"The scoreline flattered us a little bit. Porto had a real good go. Even when we went in front it was a real good atmosphere."

Not sure my ticker can cope with that again on Saturday. Sad City fan, but very proud.

Let's put the talk of the quad away. You need luck as well as skill. There was only talk of the treble in '99 when both teams walked out on the pitch for the final. City have been talking about that since September 2018. Thanks Spurs.

There's so much to talk about. Should Fernando Llorente's crucial goal - the one that has seen them through on away goals - have stood?
Was it handball?

Alan Shearer
Former England captain on BBC Radio 5 LiveI looked at both managers at the end of the game and they both looked absolutely shattered. Pep Guardiola went down the touchline in celebration and then the game is taken off them. Mauricio Pochettino is off celebrating in front of the away end. Incredible stuff.

It looks like there are tears on the faces of the Man City players. They thought they had won it. Raheem Sterling scored the winner but it was ruled out via VAR.
You will never, ever, ever see drama like that again.
