Great football comebacks to inspire Liverpool in Champions League semi-final second leg match with Barcelona
Liverpool are 3-0 down in their Champions League semi-final with Barcelona.They lost the first leg, despite a valiant showing at the Camp Nou, as Lionel Messi turned on the magic in front of his adoring fans.9But the Reds shouldn’t give up, they haven’t in the title race and they shouldn’t in this tie either.Sure, they’re losing. Yes, Mohamed Salah will be absent but other heroes can still write their names into the history books and have songs sun in their honour.Liverpool’s hopes of making the final are faint, however, one thing that makes football so great are games which have seen teams come back from seemingly impossible positions.Here are some of the greatest against-the-odds comebacks that Burton could perhaps take inspiration from…

Newcastle 4-4 Arsenal

Newcastle scored four goals in 19 second-half minutes to secure an incredible comeback draw against a shocked Arsenal side in January 2011.Arsene Wenger’s men found themselves four goals to the good but collapsed at St James’ Park as two Joey Barton penalties, Leon Best’s strike and an excellent volley by the late Cheick Tiote resulted in one of the iconic Premier League matches.This draw was basically the beginning of the end of the Gunners’ title challenge for that season as they failed to close the gap on Manchester United, who ran away with the crown in the end.9

Barcelona 6-1 (agg 6-5) Paris Saint-Germain

A big shout out to all the journalists who had to file through on-the-whistle reports for this Champions League last-16 tie in 2017 as Barcelona scored three goals in the final six minutes to change the entire course of the tie.After a 4-0 defeat in Paris, Barca looked dead and buried and despite starting well at the Nou Camp, it definitely looked all over when Edinson Cavani scored early in the second-half to make it 5-3 to the French side on aggregate.However, Neymar truly took the game by the scruff of the neck when he scored two goals before providing the assist for Sergi Roberto to make it 6-1 on the night and sensationally send the LaLiga giants through.

Germany 4-4 Sweden

This incredible 2014 World Cup qualifier doesn’t grab the headlines as much because it didn’t lead to either Germany’s decline or Sweden reaching the tournament but it’s still an impressive effort nonetheless.With half an hour to play, Joachim Low’s men were 4-0 up at Berlin’s Olympic Stadium in October 2012 and cruising but Sweden had other ideas.9Goals from Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Mikael Lustig, Johan Elmander and Rasmus Elm incredibly to draw the game 4-4.But as well all know, Germany went on to win the World Cup in Brazil so who are the real losers?

Reading 5-7 (aet) Arsenal

Another game featuring Arsenal but this time it’s a happy one for Gooners.The travelling fans would have had the shock of their lives when they found themselves 4-0 down after 37 minutes in a League Cup tie at Reading in October 2012.9But Arsenal showed great character to come back and make it 4-4 in the sixth minute of stoppage time.They went onto win the game 7-5 after another 30 minutes but lost in the next round to League Two Bradford on penalties…

Bournemouth 4-3 Liverpool

Liverpool’s defence used to be shocking under Jurgen Klopp but even this was bad by their standards.A huge collapse saw the Reds blow a 3-1 lead with less than 20 minutes to play to lose to Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium in December 2016.9Goals from Ryan Fraser, Steve Cook and Nathan Ake, following Loris Karius’ error secured the famous win for the Cherries and it was a sign of things to come until Klopp finally sorted out the defence last summer.

Roma 3-0 (agg 4-4) Barcelona

Barcelona are not the team they were under the days of Pep Guardiola’s management but to overturn a three-goal deficit against them was a stunning effort by Roma.The Serie A giants had it all to do after losing 4-1 at the Nou Camp but got off to the perfect start when Edin Dzeko gave them a sixth-minute lead in the second-leg.Daniele de Rossi made it 2-0 just short of the hour and the imposing Stadio Olimpico crowd willed their team on and Kostas Manolas headed their third home on 82 minutes to send Rome bonkers.They were knocked out in the semi-finals to Premier League side Liverpool, however, overcoming Barca will live long in the memory.

Belgium 3-2 Japan

This was arguably the most entertaining game of the World Cup finals in Russia as a manic second-half saw Belgium clinch a 3-2 win over Japan in the last-16 tie in Rostov.A shock appeared to be on the cards after quickfire goals from Genki Haraguchi and Takashi Inui put Japan 2-0 up on 52 minutes.However, the Red Devils came back and were level thanks to Jan Vertonghen’s looping header and Marouane Fellaini’s goal.And in the fourth minute of stoppage-time, the stunning turnaround was complete when Nacer Chadli’s finished off an excellent counter-attack to send Belgium through to the quarter-finals.

Fulham 4-1 (5-4 agg) Juventus

It may seem like a distant memory now but once upon a time, Fulham almost won the Europa League.In 2010, Roy Hodgson guided the Cottagers to the final but they lost 2-1 to Atletico Madrid, however, it was Fulham’s last-16 tie against Juventus which made all the headlines.9When David Trezeguet gave Juve a 4-1 aggregate lead early in the second-leg at Craven Cottage it appeared to be all over.But Fulham came roaring back and Bobby Zamora’s strike, two goals from Zoltan Gera and Clint Dempsey’s exquisite chip secured the famous win against the two-time European champions.

AC Milan 3-3 (2-3 pens) Liverpool

It’s a game all your Liverpool fan friends will never let you forget and why would they not go on about it?Istanbul 2005 was a truly remarkable comeback by a fairly average Reds side against a star-studded AC Milan.9Rafael Benitez’s men were 3-0 down at half-time in their first Champions League final for 20 years thanks to Paolo Maldini’s volley inside 50 seconds and Hernan Crespo’s double.But less than 15 minutes after the restart Liverpool were somehow level. Steven Gerrard’s header got the ball rolling before Vladimir Smicer got their second moments later.Gerrard was then felled in the box by Gennaro Gattuso. Xabi Alonso stepped up and had his penalty saved but the Spaniard scored from the rebound.9The Merseysiders rode their luck after that but made it to penalties and it was much-maligned goalkeeper Jerzy Dudek who became the hero as Milan missed three penalties in the shootout to secure Liverpool’s fifth and to date last European crown.

Manchester City 3-2 Queens Park Rangers

This is arguably the most iconic game in Premier League history as Sergio Aguero’s last-gasp strike saw Manchester City take the title off Manchester United in the most incredible of circumstances.City needed to beat lowly QPR to secure their first league title in 44 years and it was all going swimmingly when Pablo Zabaleta gave them the lead shortly before the break.But disaster struck when quick goals from Djibril Cisse and Jamie Mackie made it 2-1 to ten-man QPR – Joey Barton being given his marching orders in between the goals.9Just when City were running out of ideas Edin Dzeko equalised in the 90th minute to give them a glimmer of hope.A glimmer was all they needed though and Aguero was the hero when he scored with seconds remaining of the 2011/12 season.

Neil Warnock will keep managing next season but unsure on Cardiff future following Premier League relegation
Neil Warnock is uncertain whether he will remain at Cardiff City following their relegation from the Premier League.The 70-year-old has no plans to retire from management but says he will ‘let the dust settle’ before holding talks with Bluebirds owner Vincent Tan and chairman Mehmet Dalman over his future at the club.4“I think we’ve just (got) to relax for a few days and have a think about everything,” said Warnock, after the defeat to Crystal Palace which consigned his side to the drop.“I’ve got to let things settle and not do anything rash. I’ve not spoken to anybody. You can’t make rash judgements at this stage of the season with one game to go.“Mehmet has been amazing with me, so I’m sure we will have a chat, either today, this weekend or the next couple of weeks.“I will be working next year, I will have a year somewhere. I am looking forward to that challenge again now.”4Speaking to talkSPORT after the dramatic 3-2 reverse at home to Palace, Warnock praised the efforts of his side as he claimed this season has been the best of his 40-year managerial career.Written off by many following their surprise promotion from the Championship, Cardiff have battled bravely against the odds in the top-flight and have had to contend with the tragic death of record signing Emiliano Sala.“When I came to the club it was in a difficult situation, it was a torn apart a little bit. Now we have united the club and we are alive and kicking,” said Warnock.“I bet there has never been a team relegated where the fans have made such a noise after the game. They are amazing the fans, they have been all season, and I am right proud to manage them.“This is my 40th year in management and I think it’s one of the best seasons – if not the best season – I’ve ever had in management with what I have had to go through and still be looking as handsome as I am.”4Warnock refuses to be downbeat about Cardiff’s relegation and says the tragic death of Sala puts everything into perspective.“I’ve had 40 years in management and you have more or less seen everything that can be thrown at you, but this came out of the blue,” he said.“It puts it into perspective. We’ve got relegated but the lad has lost his life. We are disappointed but we can go again.4“Emiliano, I spent a couple of months getting him and I told him ‘we are going to create chances and you are going to score them’ because I’m sure he would have done.Ithought ten goals in the second half of the season from him would have definitely got us safe.“It was a major blow at a time where we couldn’t really go out and get anybody else.“I don’t think I realised at the time emotionally how much it took out of me because it did. It was a very, very difficult time.”

Sir Alex Ferguson wanted Mauricio Pochettino as Manchester United boss and was ‘saddened’ he was not approached for advice
Sir Alex Ferguson favoured the appointment of Mauricio Pochettino as Manchester United manager over Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, according to reports.According to the Mail on Sunday, Ferguson was saddened not be approached by the club’s hierarchy over the appointment of the new Old Trafford boss.2Following Jose Mourinho’s dismissal in December, Solskjaer was given the job until the end of the season to get the club back on track.The Norwegian hit the ground running in charge, winning his first eight games, and also led his side to a stunning Champions League victory over Paris Saint-Germain to progress to the quarter-finals of the competition.However, United succumbed to another barren patch of form towards the end of the season, losing eight of their last 12 outings in all competitions.Solskjaer was handed the full-time job back in March and was given a three-year deal to steer the club back into the right direction.Getty Images - Getty2The Mail on Sunday state Ferguson was keen on the club hiring Tottenham boss Pochettino before Solskjaer was given the contract.The Scot is said to be a huge admirer of Pochettino, who has guided his side to a Champions League final this season despite signing just one player in the past three transfer windows. Ferguson is said to be ‘disappointed’ that he is being left in the dark over key decisions at the club by Ed Woodward and Co – and he is asking his former right-hand man and current assistant manager Mike Phelan for all the latest goings-on.A source close to Ferguson told the Mail on Sunday: “Sir Alex feels conflicted. He can see the irony that he still spends time thinking about United when hes retired.“But he loves the club and does feel a bit hurt that his opinion is never sought.”
