Liverpool fans are jubilant after they watched their side recover from a first-half second leg slump to claim a 5-2 aggregate victory over Villarreal on Tuesday and book their place in this year’s Champions League final.
They will find out their opponents on Wednesday when Manchester City travel to Real Madrid after a 4-3 first-leg win. Liverpool beat their title challengers in their last meeting, triumphing 3-2 winners in the FA Cup semi-finals.
They could face them again this month should Pep Guardiola mastermind a win over Madrid. It would be their first meeting in a major final since the 2016 League Cup, in which City ran out the winners after a penalty shoot-out.
