It happens.Delighted for Spurs, particularly given their spending relative to the clubs around them. Can't see them going all the way but it would be a fine sporting story if they could.

Mind-bending.Great comeback, don't know if it was any of the above though.It's amazing how often it does happen tbh. Team without a hope going into second-leg and with players out, goes for it with an unpredictable shape and pulls it off. Always fun to watch a big favourite fall apart though. PSG this year and against Barca last season are recent examples.I think my favourite of the genre though, was Deportivo dumping AC Milan out in what, 03 or 04? 4-1 up and cruising only to get tonked 4-0 in the second leg. Prime noughties Milan that - could shut out anyone at 1-0 but as soon as they had breathing space they'd lose all sense.

Two games in 24 hours that defy everything you understand about the game. I'm hoarse and broken tonight.Unreal.

They had a 1% chance of making it to the Final at one point in late October. Liverpool's kind of a bogey team gor them, but I think they've got a good shot at it.
