CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMI-FINALS IN NUMBERS

6 Liverpool and Spurs are only the fifth and sixth teams to advance from a Champions League semi-final after losing the first leg. It last happened in 2006-07 – again in both semi-finals, when Liverpool and AC Milan progressed.

5 Spurs’ Lucas Moura is only the fifth player to score a hat-trick in a Champions League semi-final, joining Alessandro Del Piero (Juventus v Monaco 1998), Ivica Olic (Bayern Munich v Lyon 2010), Robert Lewandowski (Borussia Dortmund v Real Madrid

2013) and Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid v Atletico Madrid 2017). Lewandowski scored four in Dortmund’s first leg.

165Excluding stoppage time, Tottenham trailed on aggregate for 165 minutes of their tie with Ajax.

11Liverpool substitute Georginio Wijnaldum had been on the field only 11 minutes by the time he scored his two goals against Barcelona.

1 It was the first time Liverpool striker Divock Origi, pictured, had ever scored more than once in a European tie, and only the second time for Wijnaldum after his 2012 hat-trick in PSV Eindhoven’s qualifier against Montenegrin side Zeta.

4 Only once has a team come from four goals down to win a Champions League tie, exceeding this year’s comebacks. That was Barcelona themselves in 2016-17, when they trailed Paris Saint-germain 4-0 after the first leg but won the return fixture 6-1.

7 Barcelona have now lost more semi-finals than any other club in the Champions League era.

2 There have only previously been two all-english European finals, Tottenham’s aggregate win over Wolves in the 1972 Uefa Cup and Manchester United beating Chelsea on penalties in the 2008 Champions League.
