Liverpool gave the unimaginable comeback in the history of the URFA Champions League after coming down to overturn a 3-0 win against one of Europe’s finest clubs, Barcelona.
It is yet to dawn on the players and the fans but the win will continue sinking lowly until they face the winner between Tottenham and Ajax in Spain for the final.
The goals came after Andy Robertson was substituted with the first one coming on early as in the eighth minute from two players and And Roberton could not hide his joy after qualifying for the finals.
Liverpool full-back Andrew Robertson will undergo a scan on Wednesday to asses the extent of a calf injury that he picked up during the club’s 4-0 win over Barcelona.
The Scotland international was forced off the pitch during the half-time break following a first-half collision with Luis SuĂĄrez, where the Uruguayan appeared to kick out at Robertson in an off the ball incident.
Robertson confirmed after the match that he will now be sent for a scan to understand the extent of his injury, with one eye on returning to fitness in time for the Champions League final next month.
“It doesnât feel the best at the minute but Iâll get a scan tomorrow,â Robertson told Liverpoolfc.com. Theyâre confident that itâs just a nerve or whatever and it can be maybe a couple of days, but weâll wait and see. We canât really comment until I get the scan, but Iâll be saying my prayers tonight.”
When asked about his coming together with the Barcelona striker during an on-pitch post-match interview, Robertson joked that all that mattered was Liverpool progressing, while Suårez would miss out on another Champions League final with the Catalan side.
“Whoâs going to the final? Weâre going to the final so thatâs all that matters,” he said, as quoted by The Metro. “Honestly, I donât care just now. Fingers crossed Iâll be okay. This team is incredible, seriously. Iâve said it so many times this season, but my god, what a team.”
Liverpool appeared to be facing mission impossible at Anfield on Tuesday following a 3-0 defeat to Barcelona in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final, but Divock Origi’s early strike gave the Reds hope of a historic comeback.
Georginio Wijnaldum scored twice to level the scoreline on aggregate, and Origi settled the tie following some outstanding improvisation from Trent Alexander-Arnold to book Liverpool’s place in the Champions League final for consecutive seasons.
