    Liverpool 4-0 Barcelona

    England Netball captain and Liverpool fan Ama Agbeze may have experienced her own dramatic win in the Commonwealth games final last year.

    But she says this Reds win was something else...

    Posting a caption under an image of the final score, Agbeze said:

    "I've been a Liverpool fan for a long while, and time has taught me not to get excited prematurely. But this result against Barcelona is incredible. 3-0 down on aggregate.

    "No away goals to rely upon. A few missing players and somehow pulled it out of the bag I know this post will probably come back to bite me in the final, but I thought I'd let loose this one time #Amazing, external."

    Well BBC Radio 5 Live caught up with him again after last night's win.

    "It’s the best feeling to see your team come back from 3-0 down," said 13-year-old Isaac.

    "At the beginning I was just hoping there would be one moment to change the game. Then we scored and I thought there was a small chance.

    "After two more goals, you knew with our club we were going to win. That was the greatest moment as a Liverpool fan for me.

    "Me and my dad were just screaming our heads off, it was a crazy moment for our whole family."

    I'd just like to send a big thanks to Luis Suarez for being so petulant and injuring Andy Robertson and so letting out of the bottle our Genie Wijnaldum! #retribution

    Liverpool fan for 45 years and married for 30. I said before the game that I hope but not sure we can beat Barca with Messi 4-0. My wife said have faith, it's Liverpool, it will happen. As always, she is Right and I am so glad for once. Too happy for words. #improbable2reality.

    Oh Steve (see 10:15), this was Champions League semi final without 2 of their best players and Robertson going off at halftime. If you cannot appreciate that, then you're obviously just a bitter person.

    Liverpool 4-0 Barcelona 2019 v 2018-19 last 16: Late VAR drama makes history in Paris

    A late penalty. VAR. A Neymar rant. This game had it all.

    Manchester United were flying with 10 wins in 11 games after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had taken over as caretaker manager following the dismissal of Jose Mourinho and welcomed PSG with renewed optimism.

    But they were outclassed by the French side at Old Trafford,with second-half goals from Presnel Kimpembe and Kylian Mbappe leaving them with the task of overturning a two-goal deficit away from home - a feat never achieved before. They would also need to do it without Paul Pogba, who had been sent off for two yellow cards.

    Deep into injury time in the second leg, United led 2-1 on the night, following first-half goals from Romelu Lukaku (two) and PSG's Juan Bernat, but the hosts were set for a 3-2 aggregate win and a place in the quarter-finals. Then Diogo Dalot's shot deflected behind off Presnel Kimpembe for a corner.

    Or so we thought.

    After looking again at the incident using VAR,Slovenian referee Damir Skomina decided it had struck Kimpembe's arm and awarded United a controversial penalty to the astonishment of the home crowd. Marcus Rashford stepped up to drill the ball home and send his team through, shattering PSG's Champions League dream once again.

    Neymar, who missed the game through injury, could not contain his anger at the decision.In a social media rage,he said: "It's a disgrace. Four guys who know nothing about football watch a slow-motion replay in front of the television."

    Haseeb: After losing last year's final Klopp said 'we will go again'. The sentence is small for reading but Champions League is no joke. That's what we called commitment and belief. This team is teaching life long lessons to the world.

    Scott: If ever an advert was needed for why this is called 'The Beautiful Game' this was it. Not a Liverpool fan but a football fan and will cheer on most English teams in Europe and I was celebrating every goal that went in.

    Steven: I'm a Utd and this give me goosebumps. Team and fans connected. If United played with 50% how Liverpool have this season they would be in the top 4 no problem.

    So bored of this miracle of Anfield nonsense. Barca - in the last two years - have lost 3-0 at Roma and Juve to go out the UCL and 4-0 at PSG (and somehow didn't). It's not like they're invincible.

    Liverpool 4-0 Barcelona 2019 v 2016-17 last 16: Barcelona defy belief to shatter PSG

    The only time any side has overturned a four-goal aggregate lead.

    Strikes from Angel di Maria (two), Julian Draxler and Edinson Cavani left Barcelona needing a miracle against Paris St-Germain to reach the quarter-finals.

    What followed was nothing short of extraordinary.

    Barcelona knew they had to go for it in the return leg and gave themselves a chance with three goals in the first 50 minutes at the Nou Camp. Cavani then struck for PSG to seemingly end the tie and leave their opponents needing three more goals to advance.

    In the most incredible finale, Neymar scored in the 88th and 91st minute against his future employers before Sergi Roberto's 95th-minute winner completed a turnaround that had to be seen to be believed.

    "Utter mayhem" and "deep, instinctive passion at its most authentic and unrefined" were seen by BBC Sport's Spanish football writer Andy West after the full-time whistle.

    Chelsea fans were dreaming after eight glorious first-half minutes saw a trademark Gianfranco Zola free-kick and a Tore Andre Flo double give them a stunning 3-0 first-leg lead at Stamford Bridge and put a semi-final place in sight, before Luis Figo struck to give Barcelona the away goal they needed to take back to the Nou Camp.

    Extra-time goals from Rivaldo and Patrick Kluivert in the second leg denied Chelsea a memorable victory. Barca would go on to lose to Valencia in the semis.

    I'm a Liverpool fan living in Manchester. I knew we would win the game but not 4 nil. I was in a pub in Salford, surrounded by United fans. Every foul, corner and attacking play, I was the loudest in the room. By the end, United and fans alike shook my hand and bought me a pint. I had to check the score when I woke up in case it was a dream

    Ryan

    Last night went beyond winning and losing, last night depicted the deepest parts of the human soul - when you look down and out, when you're injured and broken and things just aren't going your way, never give in and fight until the very end. Sometimes this sport simply moves beyond trophies, medals and glory.

    As an Ipswich fan, I'm used to seeing this drama. But I fully appreciate everyone's hype. Fabulous stuff.

    "Miracles often happen, things you might not rationally expect,", externalDeportivo coach Javier Irureta said after his side were hammered 4-1 by reigning champions AC Milan in the first leg of their 2003-04 quarter-final.

    His words were prophetic as a Milan side containing Maldini, Alessandro Nesta, Cafu, Clarence Seedorf, Andrea Pirlo, Kaka and Andriy Shevchenko were stunned in the second leg.

    Deportivo produced a crushing display with goals from Walter Pandiani, Juan Valeron, Albert Luque and Gonzalo Fran sending the home fans into a frenzy.

    A single goal from a Porto side managed by a young Jose Mourinho - who would go on to win the competition - deprived them of a place in the final.

    A very hoarse Lizzi Doyle from the Anfield Wrap said on BBC Radio 5 Live this morning:

    "My voice is in Anfield. I can’t actually believe what happened last night.

    "I gave us a 10% chance. Being 3-0 down to Barcelona is pretty much impossible for anyone.

    "It was the weirdest winning goal because nobody really knew what was going on. For Trent Alexander-Arnold, he’s 20 years of age. To pull off a training move like that against Barcelona – he basically won us the game last night at that age.

    "He stayed on the pitch after everyone else had left last night and you could see how much it meant to him."

    Liverpool 4-0 Barcelona 2019 v 2011-12 last 16: Would-be champions Chelsea refuse to go out

    Two goals from Napoli's Ezequiel Lavezzi either side of an Edinson Cavani header cancelled out Juan Mata's early volley in a scintillating performance at the San Paulo Stadium that put the Italians firmly on course for the quarter-finals.

    Two weeks later Roberto di Matteo had replaced Andre Villas-Boas as Chelsea's caretaker manager in a desperate attempt to galvanise the players and rescue the season.

    It had the desired effect as Didier Drogba, John Terry and Frank Lampard all scored to take the tie to extra time at Stamford Bridge.

    After Branislav Ivanovic's dramatic winner sent Chelsea through, Di Matteo said: "I've had some great nights but I think this will go down in the club's history."

    He was right, as his Blues went on to win their first and only Champions League title- beating Bayern Munich on penalties at their own stadium.

    Liverpool 4-0 Barcelona 2019 v 2004-05 final: AC Milan v Liverpool - That night in Istanbul

    While all the other entries on this list happened over two legs, the Reds squeezed their comeback into 45 second-half minutes (plus extra time and penalties) in the 2005 final.

    A rollercoaster of emotion from start to finish, this was one of the gutsiest comebacks in the history of the Champions League. What was meant to be Liverpool's big moment quickly fell to pieces, with Milan captain Paolo Maldini grabbing a first-minute lead before Hernan Crespo scored twice to put Milan 3-0 up.

    The game looked over at half-time but six mad second-half minutes saw captain and talisman Steven Gerrard, Vladimir Smicer and Xabi Alonso score to level the tie and take it to penalties. Liverpool won the shootout with goalkeeper Jerzy Dudek the hero and Gerrard declaring his love of the club soon after, having been heavily linked with a move to Chelsea.

    "How can I think of leaving Liverpool on a night like this?" he said, before taking the trophy to bed with him.

    Sound familiar? Barcelona looked to have this quarter-final tie sewn up in the first leg at the Nou Campafter Gerard Pique and Luis Suarez added to own goals from Daniele de Rossi and Kostas Manolas.

    But what looked like a consolation in the 80th minute from former Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko proved to be crucial.

    The Bosnian put Roma ahead after just six minutes in the return leg before a De Rossi penalty and a Manolas header atoned for their Nou Camp mistakes and led the Italian side to an unfathomable win on away goals. Cue madness in the Stadio Olympico stands.
