Jurgen Klopp saluted a “really special” comeback after Liverpool made history by reaching another Champions League final on a dramatic evening in Spain.
The Reds saw their 2-0 semi-final first-leg advantage wiped out by half-time at Villarreal on Tuesday, only to produce an outstanding second-half recovery to win 3-2 on the night and 5-2 on aggregate.
In doing so, Klopp’s side have become the first to reach the finals of the Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup in the same season, while keeping alive their hopes of an unprecedented quadruple.
