Liverpool completed one of the Champions League s greatest ever escapes on Tuesday as they overturned a 3-0 first-leg deficit to power past Barcelona and into their second consecutive final.
Divock Origi set Liverpool on their way to a famous 4-0 victory early on before Georginio Wijnaldum scored twice in quick succession shortly after being introduced at the interval.
Trent Alexander-Arnold s quickly taken corner was then buried by Origi 11 minutes from time as Jurgen Klopp s side booked their spot in next month s final in Madrid where they will take on either Ajax or Tottenham.
Here, with the help of Opta, we look at some of the key stats behind Liverpool s incredible Anfield victory.
