The Champions League’s second all-England final Saturday should be a dandy, set up by two of the most jaw-slackening semifinals Europe has seen.
After falling behind Barcelona, 3-0, in the first leg of its semifinal, Liverpool stormed back to a 4-0 win at Anfield that left Barca bewildered and Reds fans weeping in stands. It put Liverpool in the Champions League final for a second year in a row, following last year’s 3-1 loss to Real Madrid.
A day after Liverpool’s epic comeback came another. Tottenham, which trailed Dutch side Ajax, 1-0, after the first semifinal leg, conceded two goals in the first half.
