Liverpool reached the Champions League semi-final after recovering from conceding a goal inside two minutes against Manchester City to win 2-1 thanks to second-half strikes by Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino on Tuesday. Firmino made sure of it by curling in the team’s second goal in the 77th. All-out attack was the only option if City was to become only the third team to overturn at least a three-goal first-leg deficit in the Champions League knockout stage. However, the City coach must have continued the verbal assault as he was sent to the stands for the second half. His mood wouldn’t have improved 12 minutes into the second half, when Liverpool nicked the crucial away goal.
