    Richard S: Liverpool did very well for sure, but most of this came from Barca's terrible play. They allowed balls into the box too easily, gifting a free header for one goal & letting Liverpool pass directly in front of goal for the 4th when they had about 7 players there.

    When you talk about the great nights, this is the best ever. It's absolutely incredible.

    Before the game, we were talking about all the superlatives we have for Messi. We can run out of superlatives for Liverpool. It was deserved as well and that's the best thing about it.

    I'm so proud and so delighted to be part of Liverpool. Everything about Liverpool was brilliant.

    Football can create beautiful moments, whoever you are a fan of.

    Here's three different experiences, but all of them can go a long way to explain why people love the game so much....

    Was watching the game in a silent hotel away with work and there was only one corner of my room with enough 4G to stream it! I was way shouting way too loudly to be acceptable at 10:30pm but there have been no complaints so far... Just a perfect night for Liverpool, the PL and English football.

    Craig, Sussex

    My mum is less interested in football than anyone I've ever met. When Owen scored THAT goal in 1998 World Cup, mum was wandering round Asda, confused as to why it was so quiet. Yesterday was her 70th birthday. Thank goodness we had her party on Sunday...

    Con Burdekin

    I honestly cannot believe what I saw last night, it's been a tough couple of weeks for me personally and sometimes football doesn't seem so important, but last for 99 minutes ( including stoppage time) I was lost, it was just incredible. Anfield is a truly magical place, no one can deny that. Fans, and players coming together in unison. We truly will never walk alone

    Is Barcelona coach Valverde's job on the line?

    Will there be a player exodus in the summer?

    BBC Sport's Spanish football writer Andy West has taken a look at what went wrong for Barca last night...and how they move forward.

    They have won La Liga this season, after all...so it's not been a complete disaster....

    The crowd were incredible. You always expect Anfield to get behind the team but the atmosphere was just sensational. The team used that inspiration.

    I was in the Kop and everyone was just stood there at the end. Nobody knew what to do, they didn’t know whether to leave, they didn’t know whether to sing.

    People were sat on the bus not talking – they were in absolute shock.

    How many more Gerards are out there this morning?

    Had what was supposed to be a end of season celebration last night with some LFC mates. Ended up losing my voice, staying up to 4.30am watching the match in its entirety again to try and soak it in. Work is hell today, but no regrets!!

    Having looked at the player ratings I think the scoring of Shaqiri is harsh. He did so much off the ball in his own half, Klopp must be a genius to be able to get Shaqiri tracking back, blocking off and defending like that!

    Eddy

    Those saying Messi disappeared last night can't have actually watched the game? He put Alba 1v1 with a worldy pass. He put Coutinho in 1v1 after picking it up in midfield and driving past 3 players. He put Suarez in 1v1 with another good ball. It's not his fault other players couldn't finish their dinner is it.

    Mark Lawrenson
    Ex-Liverpool defender on BBC Radio 5 live

    The impossible was achieved. I think it is the greatest ever performance. An away goal from a very talented Barcelona side and Liverpool would have needed five.

    Alisson Becker made some fantastic saves – they just got everything right.

    Jurgen Klopp said before the game, ‘look this is impossible, but looking round at all of you I think we might actually achieve it.'
