liverpool's heroics last night, is there more drama to come as tottenham go in search of a first champions league final in the club's history? they too need to overturn a first leg deficit — just the one goal compared to liverpool's three — we'll reflect on liverpool's titanic achievment in a moment. but first we head to amesterdam tojoin natalie pirks who is outside thejohan cruyff stadium ahead of tottenham's semi final second leg. it will be very difficult, they will have seen what liverpool did at anfield, that incredible comeback, that incredible atmosphere. quite aside from the difference in opposition, what liverpool had on their side with that 12 man, that amazing atmosphere at anfield. that is something that liverpool, that totte n ha m is something that liverpool, that tottenham just won't have tonight. they have lost nine of their last away games. only one team in the last 17 to lose a first leg at home ina last 17 to lose a first leg at home in a champions league semi has gone on to win at the final. that was

ajax in 1996. they have it all to do. they will be happy that vertonghen is back and fit. no problems from the concussion. mauricio pochettino saying he won't even need to wear a mask. and son will also be back after suspension. he has scored 20 of gold. mauricio pochettino didn't want to make it all about the south korean but let's listen to what both managers said in their press conferences yesterday. we need a very important, collective good performance. this is going to be tough. ajax is a very good team. of course, it is true that son wasn't in the first leg but what is important is our performance as a team. and then on sunday, some players are more important than

others, one day one scores, another. translation: when you play against an english premier league team, the intensity is different. we have experienced that before against real madrid and juventus. as you have seen madrid and juventus. as you have seenin madrid and juventus. as you have seen in the first leg, i would team has the ability to adapt and play at a high level. it will take that experience with us and push the boundaries. as the managerjust said there, they have dispatched the holders real madrid and juventus, they are one game now from making they are one game now from making the final. for spurs, liverpool lie in wait. the promise of an all premier league final. if that isn't motivation, i don't know what is. what a night in store for tottenham. we will be back to get more reaction

and the build—up with some of the totte n ha m and the build—up with some of the tottenha m fa ns and the build—up with some of the tottenham fans there at the moment. if spurs do win tonight, it'll set up the first all—english champions league final since manchester united beat chelsea 11 years ago. after liverpool's victory against barcelona last night, one of the greatest comebacks in champions league history, many bookmakers were offering odds of 50—1 on a 4—0 liverpool victory before last night's match. our sports correspondent david ornstein has been in anfield today to reflect on how they did it. the delight, the disbelief of a club and its supporters. an achievement few believed was even a possibility let alone a remarkable reality. trailing 3—0 from the first leg, an injury hit liverpool were given hope by back—up striker divock origi. after half—time, it was two, the mighty barcelona rattled, and when substitute georginio wijnaldum

scored his second in the space of two minutes, liverpool were level. then came a moment that will live long in the memory. local boy trent alexander arnold bassa with a quick corner, divock origi reacting fastest with a quick finish. anfield of all places had never seen a finish like that. i am really proud to be the manager of this team, it is unbelievable what they did tonight. it is so special. i will remember it forever, 100%. it was a head spinning feet for 20—year—old alexander arnold and his joyous team—mates celebrating in the changing rooms. among the greatest comebacks, manchester united's scoring twice at the end of the match in 1999 was extraordinary. so to liverpool themselves overturning a 3—0 deficit to triumph six years later. but does this trump them all?

it seems to be a result that has shocked the world. you come together, you have seen the support and the way they sang you'll never walk alone. it is amazing, i can't explain it with words. i think it is the best day of my life! you came a long wait for this? we are from brazil, we travelled to hear, and on monday, just to this game. to put that performance in with that attitude and that desire, and the will to win, not many times do you get everyone in a team with a perfect ten out of ten performance. that is what it needed. this is what it is all about, liverpool have already won five european cups, eclipsing any other british club. and after stunning barcelona, they will go to the final as the favourite to lift number six. and following their heroic effort here, liverpool will be confident of doing

it and liverpool will be confident of doing itand adding liverpool will be confident of doing it and adding another chapter to their illustrious history. he's got them this far, number six is well within reach. joe lynskey‘s with me. we saw lionel messi's face in that piece there, that was the look of a man who knows his threat was nullified last night. that is something that liverpool did really well, wasn't it? containing his talents. absolutely, it feels a long time ago, last week now when lionel messi, we werejust time ago, last week now when lionel messi, we were just talking about how stunning he was last week in the new camp in that first leg. it was his brilliant free kick that put barcelona in such a strong position going into last night's match. liverpool knew that if they were going to stop barcelona scoring and indeed getting this one in a million result, they would have to mark him out of the game and get on top of him and offer some counter punches of their own going forward. lionel messi won plenty of free kicks in that match last week at the nou camp, last night he was roughed up right from the start by liverpool's

glaswegian defender andy robertson. you can see from this heat map i am going to show you, this is where messi was in possession, these heat areas here. you messi was in possession, these heat areas here. you can see messi was in possession, these heat areas here. you can see he barely made a touch into the opposition penalty area. he also had just over 85% pass completion, that is quite far down from his near perfect figures normally. he was given just one single free kick in the whole game, the result of all that, according to the guardian is that he was in floods of tears in the dressing room at full—time. barcelona knocked out of the competition of eton 4—0 on the night. one other point that people might not be aware of is a tactic that was employed off the field using the ball boys and the time it took to get the ball back into play. this was a night when liverpool needed everybody onside, everybody singing from the same hymn sheet. they needed the players to put the book point in on the from the fans,

even at the ball boys had a role to play from pitch side. if you are watching the fourth gold closely, you can see that the ball boy here who has been named today, a 14—year—old academy player called oakley, he gets the ball into the corner spot within just oakley, he gets the ball into the corner spot withinjust a oakley, he gets the ball into the corner spot within just a few seconds of trent alexander arnold so that he was able to deliver the ci’oss. that he was able to deliver the cross. barcelona switching off at the corner, it was apparently something liverpool had noticed over the two legs. they had instructed the two legs. they had instructed the ball boys to get the ball back moving, back on the corner spot as quickly as they could. some pundits watching said this was so important that this young life deserves a free ticket to the champions league final. graeme souness telling irish tv there that he is already on the spot, barcelona have turned their back on it, that is criminalfor a professional footballer. a quote from graeme souness there. and an unlikely hero. worth pointing out as

well that liverpool managed to achieve this last night without two of their big players. two huge players, that is what it made it more of a shock. few people excited liverpool to get this result when they were missing mohammed sala and roberto firmino. in place of those, they brought on shaqiri and divock origi who was leading the line. he scored the two goals that made the difference. divock origi has had a stop start liverpool career, he has been quite inconsistent and not a lwa ys been quite inconsistent and not always got his place in the team. in the last few months he has scored arguably four of their most important goals of the season including the winner at newcastle at the weekend keeping them in the title race and the bizarre merseyside derby winning goal. we also saw georginio wijnaldum come off the bench and that jake information saw him get two famous goals himself. when you have so much

going on, how do you get the best out of those players? to bring them in from the cold and putting them into such a big match? jurgen klopp said that he told his team that "because it's you, i think we have a chance." i got the view from a sports psychologist from bangor university. it is quite clearly a transformational leader in the regard thatjurgen transformational leader in the regard that jurgen klopp transformational leader in the regard thatjurgen klopp seems transformational leader in the regard that jurgen klopp seems to have a lot of recognition for the individualised considerations of his players. so he will know what each players. so he will know what each player needs and what each player requires in order to get the best out of them. he is quite clearly a very appropriate role model. he leads by example. he will have anticipated that you will not whizz have your best players for every game that you have. the crowds's hostility, i watched the match, the crowd's booing towards a certain opposition players will have some

kind of negative. when you become distracted, you tend to focus on the more an important aspect of the match you could see some of that creeping into barcelona last night. the crowd certainly had an impact. you know how good they can be, the crowd at anfield when they are behind liverpool. you have picked up some interesting headlines, we know the barcelona players were returning home and you can imagine the spanish newspapers haven't ta ken home and you can imagine the spanish newspapers haven't taken too kindly to that rather embarrassing defeat. there is another side to this story, it isa there is another side to this story, it is a terrible night for barcelona, reflected in the catalan and spanish press this morning. this paper saying it is the greatest farce in history. a terrible day and night for barcelona. shame, this newspaper saying there is no other adjective to describe this. the biggest failure in barcelona's history. and this famous spanish

newspaper go on to talk about the barcelona manager, they say he has to go, by, and please take coutinho with you. this also happens to barcelona last year at the champions league semifinal stage when roma came back from 4—1 to win 3—0 in on the second leg. even though barcelona have co mforta ble even though barcelona have comfortable you won the spanish domestic league this year, there are plenty of questions for them to a nswer plenty of questions for them to answer ina plenty of questions for them to answer in a few competitions. absolutely, no lionel messi last night. well, he was there but couldn't bail them out. thank you for reflecting their on that brilliant game last night. let's ta ke brilliant game last night. let's take a look at some of the other stories. chelsea's transfer ban remains in place, after losing their appeal, which means they won't be able

to sign any new players over the next two windows. they breached rules on signing foreign players under the age of 18, but have been permitted to sign players under the age of 16 from within the eu. that certainly won't help boost their first—team squad. bolton wanderers are to go into administration. relegated to league one, administration would mean starting next season with a 12—point deduction. queens park rangers have appointed mark warburton as their new manager. the ex rangers and brentford boss replace steve mclaren who was sacked last month. european ryder cup captain padraig harrington has cut the number of wildcards he'll pick for next year's tournament from four to three. he says players are more comfortable when making the team on merit rather than being a captain's pick. london irish have signed world cup—winning all blacks winger waisake naholo ahead of their return to the premiership next season. the 28—year—old has also won a super rugby title with the highlanders in new zealand. a great

addition for them. rain has restricted the cricketers this summer. after a delayed start, england one of the task today and elected to field. what a start for him. liam plunkettand elected to field. what a start for him. liam plunkett and butler combined to reduce pakistan to two in the first over. not long after that, you can see the rain and hail arrived and players haven't been back on since 3:30pm. the weather doing its worst there in london today. here is the scorecard. a frustrating day for all concerned. remarkable figures for archer. strengthening his case for being included in the squad this summer. another inspection is due at 6:40pm. it is not looking good with those threatening clouds of their over the oval. still to come on sportsday...

atmosphere's building in amsterdam as tottenham attempt to reach a first champions league final. the england women's wprld cup squad was announced today. and some familiar faces were drafted in to reveal who is on the plane to france. none other than prince william, david beckham and emma watson. it gives you great pleasure to be able to announce that england's captain and defensive rock step out and will be on the plane to france. congratulations, i know you and the tea m congratulations, i know you and the team will do the nation proud. congratulations, i know you and the team will do the nation proudm congratulations, i know you and the team will do the nation proud. it is a shirt that i wore for many years with pride, it is a shirt that i captain my country. i know that women will do the same and wear this shirt with pride. a message to fill and all of the lionesses for the world cup this summer, good luck, we

will be watching. she has had an amazing two years, she has gone from amateur to full international. i am delighted to announce that mcmanus will be going to france. good luck to the lionesses. today is a big day, the lionesses are being announced. i have been given the permission to announce who is going to france. i just permission to announce who is going to france. ijust want permission to announce who is going to france. i just want to say a big congratulations for the season you have had. hopefully i can get that picture soon as well. i wish you and the rest of the lionesses the best in france this summer. that was a really clever way they announced those names with the names posted on the lionesses twitter feed. the manager has been talking. well, phil neville has predicted a succesfull tournamnety with what he calls a squad packed full of world—class players.

it all begins for england against on june seventh. joe currie was at his press conference today. phil neville always said that selecting his squad for this world cup will be the ha rd est hardestjob since becoming england manager last january. he is hardestjob since becoming england manager lastjanuary. he is the best place to man to do it, having missed out on three world cups himself as a player. yesterday, the squad found out which 23 would be on the plane to france. today, the rest of the country found out as well. he says it has been a careful blend of experience and youth. they have all been to major championships but i don't think anything will prepare them for what will be exposed to do in the summer. that is why we have the experienced players around. that is why they are so players around. that is why they are so important to us. i always liked that as a young player, you need experienced players sometimes just to pull you back and settle you down, just to put an arm around your shoulder. we have a nice balance in the squad. tomorrow marks one month
