Down 3-0 after the first leg at the Camp Nou, Liverpool did the unthinkable at Anfield, turning around the tie with four answered goals in one of the greatest comebacks the Champions League has ever seen.
With a three-goal deficit and without two of their famed front three in Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino (both injured), Liverpool got two goals apiece from Divock Origi and Georginio Wijnaldum to shock Lionel Messi and Barcelona and reach the Champions League final.
Here's how social media reacted to the latest -- and maybe most improbable -- in a long line of magical European nights at Anfield...

Hard to argue with this quote after watching that performance from Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool and the fans at Anfield.
"Here is one thing everyone inside Anfield knows, including our opponents. This Liverpool never stops. This Liverpool never quits. This Liverpool gives everything at all times." ❤️ pic.twitter.com/0ELb61N8Ab

Seven percent chance of advancing... tell that to Liverpool!
How unlikely was Liverpool's comeback?
- Barcelona was -3000 to reach the final, according to Westgate
- FiveThirtyEight's Soccer Power Index gave Liverpool a 7% chance to advance
- They didn't have their 1st and 3rd-leading scorers from the last 2 years (Salah & Firmino). pic.twitter.com/qHD3IjY1Mm
