LIVERPOOL ✪ Road to VICTORY - UCL 2019

Jürgen Klopp and Liverpool's King to the Kop are champions of Europe once again. Alexander-Arnold had plenty of whip on him. A little bit too high in the middle there for Mane. Back in by Robertson. Good ball! And a goal! Sturridge, well he's in for Roberto Firmino tonight. And his first start in the Champions League. It just took a little bit long to play the ball and then Wijnaldum. He's got down, it's a penalty. It is a penalty, no doubt about that. It's Milner. And it's 2-0! What a start for Liverpool! Milner punishes the Burnham mistake. Di Maria with the ball in towards Cavani. And then the shot, quickly it's in! And it's steered in by Thomas Meunier. It was a really instinctive finish by the right-back. And it's Liverpool 2, Paris Saint-Germain 1. Now Neymar's got a bit of space and he's accelerating as well. Van Dijk with a challenge! And there's the equaliser, which is scored by Kylian Mbappe. And for all of Liverpool's possession, they've been done by Paris Saint-Germain. Liverpool 2, PSG 2. Firmino. And still... And it's in! With Paris Saint-Germain 2! He'll celebrate Sir Roberto. Thomas has stayed tight, Callejon has joined in. Insignia has a bit of space here. It is Lorenzo Insignia who tracks his shot wide. Touch. Milik! Down goes Alisson. And across comes Gomez to shift it behind for a corner. Alisson's cross. Came out to Salah! Koulibaly. Scratched away from the line by Gomez. Mario Rui! Oh, gets the crossbar! With Alisson flailing. And fired back over. And again. Jose Callejon. Insignia scores! 30 seconds shy of 90 minutes. And Koulibaly has snatched the lead against Liverpool. And he receives it. Back again from Roberto Firmino. Here's Robinson. Typical run from him. There's the cross. It's Firmino! He's been such a talismanic figure for Liverpool under Jurgen Klopp. And the man who got the goal off the bench on Matchday 1 against PSG. We were saying at that stage last season, somebody's due a hammering. Here's Salah. In for another! He's got Bo Salah again for Liverpool. That's five this season. Mane. It goes on. Blocked by Stojkovic. Oh, no. The penalty. How is he here in front of the Kop? No mistake at all. Fired home. Red Star now. It's van Alden. Here's Sturridge. Here's Mane! He's got his goal now. His wait is over. Beautiful cameo. And he found Mane. Who skips away there. Electric pace. And surely a chance for Sturridge. Who will feel he should have put that away. With the corner kick. Was that goal coming? There have been a series of corners at Red Star Belgrade. Been sloppy really so far. Fancying his chances. And scoring again! Salah. Oh, my goodness me. Off the woodwork and away. Salah couldn't win the header. Drops to him. No! And still, it won't go in. Good save again. For Milan. For Jan. Not too easy for Verratti that. Gets it back from Ancel Di Maria. Here's Kylian Mbappe. Playing it behind. Edinson Cavani. Bernat! Squeezes the ball in. Paris Saint-Germain score the first goal inside 15 minutes. And it's Juan Bernat with his second goal of the season. Cavani sprinting through the middle. Di Maria coming in as well. It's Neymar! And it's 2-0. They were ripped apart there in Liverpool by the speed of the Paris Saint-Germain attack. And the finishing touch applied by Neymar is 14th goal of the season. It's Paris Saint-Germain 2-0 Liverpool. Away from Kieran. Di Maria gets in. Oh, it's a foul, but what is it? Oh, he defends. Here comes Milner. Who scores! And gives Liverpool exactly what they needed on the stroke of half-time. Paris Saint-Germain 2-0 Liverpool. Heiss running through the veins of James Milner. There's the first chance for the left-back Robertson to get forward. And they've got men over here in Liverpool. It's Salah. Didn't take it. Needed a better touch. Salah. Alexander-Arnold. Mane! Flags up. Ends up straight away to silence the Liverpool celebrations. Salah's rolled his way in. And he's got support. Salah in. Didn't need anybody else. Scoring sensation in the Champions League. And he bags himself another one when they really needed it again. In towards Alveol. Straight at Alisson. Oh, Salah. In he goes against Salah. Went for the tighter angle of the... Firmino! Straight at Ospina. Yeah, right down the middle. Henderson's going to hit one. It's set up nicely. David Ospina down and held on to it. Shredded through here to Salah. Ospina got a touch. Salah looking to bend it. Oh, what a save. Somehow got there to Paul. Robertson's in. Sadio Mane! Ospina with another save for Napoli. That was better though, wasn't it? Up goes Van Dijk. It's gone all the way through. Oh, what a save! From Alisson to the nine-millite. That's why Liverpool spend the big bucks on the Roma goalkeeper. And the two teams walk out to the opening line. Four at Bayern Munich. Skips away from Robertson. Fitters in the cross. Alisson made the save. There's Rodriguez. Then Kingsley Coman. Munich, although Alexander-Arnold can lift one in towards Salah. Couldn't hit the target. Really good chance though for Liverpool. Firmino takes some of the pieces. Plays it into Keita. That's the shot. Was that handball? It's put wide by Sadio Mane. But my thought is, was there a handball in there initially? Here's Firmino. Chance for Liverpool. Pull back. Speared wide. Joel Matip was running in. Well, there is the full-time whistle, which does represent the half-time whistle. It's Anfield three weeks ago, but he would have expected more colleagues to be around him when Bayern have got the ball tonight. Here's Mane. Neuer's caught in. No man's land. It's Mane! And it's in! It's the man in form with an away goal for Liverpool in the Allianz Arena. Sadio Mane strikes again. Bayern Munich nil. Liverpool won. We're waiting to see who can produce that bit of magic. Here's Gnabry. Robertson's got to be careful. Gnabry gets it in. There's the equaliser. Kowalski was sniffing around. It was Serge Gnabry. Might well have been a touch off Matip on the way in. But Bayern Munich are back on terms. That's what matters to them. Van Dijk's in. Oh, he's scored! Virgil van Dijk for Liverpool. His first goal in the Champions League as a Liverpool player. And he makes it. Bayern Munich one. Liverpool two. Mo Salah for Liverpool. And he goes towards Mane! That's it! That's the one that Liverpool needed. That's the goal to take them through to the Champions League quarter-finals. It's Sadio Mane again. Bayern Munich one. Liverpool three. Liverpool through to the last eight. And that's it. Liverpool have got it. It's an historic night. For Mane. Firmino's showed himself well. Keita's got a chance here. He's deflected again. Deflection on that. He doesn't. Henderson who assesses the options. Alexander-Arnold is one of them. Oh, and it's brilliantly done. He finishes it off. Picture book goal from Liverpool. And now they lead by two. Henderson, what a ball that is. Mane! Three. Flags up. Won't count. Ruled out straight away. Not in Portugal. The tap failed. He put it up. Robertson to cut in. Salah. They're trying for the sucker punch goal here. Salah's got it again. Tries to invent something. And Liverpool do have the lead with the flags up. Mane was there to stick it in. Looked offside. And he was offside. Of course they will check it. He's going to go and look at this. Hang on. He's given it. He's given the goal. Liverpool are ahead. What a massive moment. He looked offside. But no. The goal stands. And that is absolutely... Milner took the free kick quickly. And here's Trent Alexander-Arnold. Towards Milner. That flicks towards the far post. And that will be the last action of the half. There's not time to... Alexander-Arnold. Perfectly done. Salah's in here. They can make it two. They have done. Game, set and match. Liverpool. On their way into the semi-finals. Mo Salah. Scoring his first away goal of this European campaign. And putting this... Back in by Corona. And there is Invis. At least they have the consolation. Up from the back. Curved in. And there's Firmino. Arriving. And Liverpool have three. Easy as you like. Henderson involved again. And a clinical finish. From the Brazilian. Well in the studio we've got Owen Fowler. Up here. Flicked on. And another goal. Van Dijk this time. Near post header. Virgil van Dijk. Scores. Just as he did at Munich in the last round. And Liverpool... Yeah. That's it. The referee had seen enough. That's it. Blows for time. Liverpool. Very quickly on the save. Suarez. Here's Messi. Messi. Oh, my goodness. Towards it. Now Liverpool deal with Barcelona. That was a slip by Robertson. And here goes Messi on the charge. Suggesting that Robertson... And the referee skip. Here's Mane. Henderson. Still Henderson! Saved by the goalkeeper. And in by Divock Origi. And Liverpool have scored early. And we may well just have a game on our hands at Anfield. Barcelona rocked by Liverpool. Well, it's a dream start. What a run by Jordan Henderson. It's Divock Origi that gets the goal, but Jordan Henderson, brilliant. And now Mane's in the middle, there's not much else to aim for. Now there is! It's in! It's Gini Wijnaldum for Liverpool! He's caught in a beauty! And Liverpool, all of a sudden, are within one. Well, we talk about it so often in our commentary position, but midfield players are right within the box. Shaqiri. Wijnaldum! Oh, my goodness gracious me! The unthinkable! The unbelievable! Liverpool are level from three down against Barcelona. Would you believe it? They just don't know how to lie down. And now Anfield is alive! The raw emotion of what's going on in this game. Origi! Liverpool goal! He's given it! What a piece of quick thinking from Trent Alexander-Arnold. And Divock Origi has two, and Liverpool have four. And they are on the precipice of the greatest night of European Champions League football that Anfield has ever seen. Don't ever tell them that nothing is possible. Don't ever tell them that it can't be done. Thank you, Gary. Good evening, everybody. Well, it's a hot and sticky night in Madrid, and it's the moment of truth for the players of Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool. Familiar rivals meeting in unfamiliar surroundings here in Madrid. And the teams are on their way to play the biggest football match in the world this year. Spurs and Liverpool waving the flag for England. Mane with the first foray forward for Liverpool. And the referees give it a penalty. Isis Oko. Salah against Lloris. And he scores! And Liverpool make the perfect start to the Champions League final. And it's Mo Salah in Madrid for Liverpool. It's Tottenham Hotspur 0-0. Liverpool 1-0. And Liverpool score first blood. Alexander-Arnold. Fancied the shot. Hits it well enough as well. Right across to Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris. He strikes a nice ball, doesn't he? Hits it well. Hit by Robertson, it's a good ball, it was well dealt with by Danny Rose. Had to defend it, but it's allowed Robertson to run forward and hit one! And Lloris had to tip it over the bar. Hasn't scored yet this season, Robertson. The other side, Danny Rose, but Dele Alli didn't see him. Eriksen, who's normally so much more... Robertson. In towards Mane, good goalkeeping, Hugo Lloris. Had to get down there. Mo Salah on this side with him. It was fizzed off the head there of Alderweirelder behind. It's a good run this by Mane, Salah, Milner with an opportunity! Just wide. Hugo Lloris wouldn't have had a chance. Lifted back in, taken away from Moura by Milner. Trippier, and then Alisson. Mane coming in. I hope so. There's another touch by... And then Dele Alli lifts it in! Spinning all the way through and into the arms of Alisson. I think Son has to take it. Tottenham trying to get bodies into the middle. Dele Alli was one of them. And it was a cross that was just a little bit too high for him. I don't know about the goal, he gives it to Son with a shot, good save! Son, nice hit, simple enough save from the keeper. First real job for Alisson and then Moura! And he's down to make another one. Here's Son, gets away from Fabinho. And then hits a tame shot, extra height in there for Tottenham now. Danny Rose caught there by Milner. And the decision does go, it's Ericsson, and it's a good free kick. It was well saved by Alisson. It was a good save. Is it gone on target? The area for Tottenham. And it's in towards Moura! And it's headed wide by Son. Flag was up anyway. Yeah. Put behind by Danny Rose, he wasn't too sure there. Son with the header again, van Dijk on the follow-up. Vertonghen's arm was raised in there, Origi with a chance! And surely that wins it for Liverpool. Semi-final hero against Barcelona. He's the hero in the final for Liverpool against Tottenham. Spurs 0-0, Liverpool 2-0. And surely the championship of Europe is Liverpool's. Scruffy goal. Indicative of the game, really. But you know what, they don't care. The hero against Barcelona has just slammed one in with his left foot. Rose with a shot on his right foot, the comfortable save there. We have the most dramatic of Champions League final finishers, and there's a good save. Kane. Kane's shot! Straight at Alisson. But they can't say... Well, there it is. It's Liverpool's night. Silverware is the currency of success in football, and Liverpool have just hit the Champions League jackpot. It's number six. It's a brilliant night for the team, a group of players that's been so good all season. With the former captain away with the greatest prize in club football, Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool's king to the cot are champions of Europe once again.
