Miracles might be real or not, depending on what you believe in. However, in the world of football, miracles do happen sometimes.
Especially in the world’s biggest club competition where the big guns come all out firing. Over the years, clubs have gone down by worrying scorelines in the first leg and have come back to do the impossible by turning around massive deficits.
Going behind by three goals is almost the end of a Champions League knockout tie for many teams, but some teams defy all the odds to do the unthinkable.
It’s similar position that Real Madrid find themselves in after Arsenal put three past them at the Emirates. Los Blancos have built a reputation as remontada kings, but can they do it again this time?

In the 2018/19 season, Liverpool stunned Barcelona at Anfield by defeating the Catalan club 4-0, after losing the first-leg semi-final by three goals.
A Lionel Messi brace after Luis Suarez opened the scoring saw Barcelona coast to a 3-0 win at home. They were favourites to qualify, or so they thought before the mystical Champions League script writers took their pens to ink an unforgettable European football night story.

The Blaugrana were flabbergasted, and what followed was even more unbelievable. The famous “corner taken quickly” by Trent Alexander-Arnold and winner by Origi in the 79th minute.
