LEAGUE QUARTER SECCOND LEG
PORTO 1-4 LIVERPOOL agg
1-6
VEAUTIFUL VAN DIJK
The Reds had been forced to survive an early bombardment in
the saturated Estadio do Dragao, before Mane opened the scoring with a sliding
effort - from Salah's scuffed shot - which was confirmed by VAR.
Salah stroked in a second after the break from a superb
counter-attack before Real Madrid-bound defender Eder Militao pulled a goal
back for the hosts.
Liverpool reasserted their authority though with close-range
headers from Firmino and Van Dijk sealing an impressive victory.
Remarkably Porto had looked capable of capitalising on a
sluggish Liverpool start until Mane's goal swung the momentum of the second leg
back in the visitors' favour.
Until then Liverpool were the beneficiaries of errant
finishing from the home side - with Moussa Marega notably failing to convert
any of his five chances in the opening 20 minutes.
MY
OPINION
This shows the quality and beauty
Liverpool going forward and the fact that Barca should look at that as this
could and should be a game of who has got the best defence and knowing not to
concede away goals. I feel that the Liverpool goal was what changed the game in
such a huge way and was he offside we are still not sure of VAR
MAN CITY 4-3 SPURS agg
4-4 SPURS WIN ON AWAY GOALS
HAPPY HEUNG MIN
Sterling lit the blue touchpaper on a thunderous atmosphere
when he curled in a precision finish from the edge of the area after only four
minutes, but Spurs responded with a double from Son Heung-min as he took
advantage of errors by Aymeric Laporte.
Bernardo Silva put City level on the night with a shot that
deflected past Hugo Lloris, then Sterling arrived on the end of the outstanding
Kevin de Bruyne's cross to score at the far post.
It left City effectively needing to win the second half and
they looked on course when Sergio Aguero crashed home their fourth after De
Bruyne sliced Spurs open before Llorente, on as a first-half substitute for
injured Moussa Sissoko, bundled in from a corner via his hip - the goal given
after a VAR check for handball.
In one last extraordinary twist, City thought they had
snatched victory and Sterling a hat-trick, but emotions switched instantly as
VAR had the final word once again, ruling that Aguero was in an offside
position as Bernardo Silva diverted the ball into his path.
MY
OPINION
Madness there is nothing more to
it than that and Spurs were the ones who were able to get the break on the VAR
as I think both calls were a little bit controversial. This is an improving As Spurs
side and you now hope that this team can do a job on Saturday. This is a Spurs
team that can develop into one of the greats and will be playing another but
both Spurs and Ajaxs will be trying to keep their players.
SEMIS
DRAW
LIVERPOOL V BARCA
AJAX V SPURS
The two big sides are on one
side with Liverpool and Barca and the smaller ones are Spurs and Ajax but all
four Have a chance in the final as it is one legged
