All the best snaps from Anfield as Liverpool stunned Barcelona on Tuesday night to reach the Champions League final.
The Reds had a huge task ahead of the game as they looked to overturn last week’s 3-0 deficit from the first-leg at Camp Nou without forwards Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino.
It was billed to be a near-impossible feat for Liverpool, however a Divock Origi and Gini Wijnaldum double sensationally saw the Reds see off Ernesto Valverde’s side.
Origi gave Liverpool the lead inside the opening ten minutes before half-time substitute Wijnaldum scored twice in two minutes to level the tie on aggregate.
With the game looking set for extra-time, Trent Alexander-Arnold caught Barcelona’s defence out from a corner and cleverly played in Origi, who netted from close-range to win the tie for Liverpool.
There were incredible scenes at the full-time whistle as all those in red let out a mixture of relief and unadulterated joy in the stands.
Liverpool secured a 2-1 win against previously unbeaten Brentford as Isak scored the game-winner. However, the Reds struggled against nine men, while injuries to Szoboszlai and Frimpong added further concern.
Brentford hold a 1-0 lead over Liverpool at half-time thanks to Lewis Potter’s stoppage-time strike. The Reds had an Alexis MacAlister penalty overturned by VAR, while Domonik Szoboszlai was forced off through injury.
Alexander Isak and Dominik Szoboszlai return to Liverpool’s starting XI against Brentford, with Cody Gakpo named on the bench. Virgil van Dijk, Victor Munoz and Alexis Mac Allister also start for the Reds.
