Liverpool produced a stunning second-half comeback to defeat Villarreal 3-2 and advance to the UEFA Champions League final.

Goals from Fabinho, Luis Diaz and Sadio Mane saw the Reds recover from a 2-0 halftime deficit in Tuesday's semifinal second leg at Estadio de la Ceramica and progress 5-2 on aggregate.

Villarreal cancelled out Jürgen Klopp's side’s first-leg advantage courtesy of Boulaye Dia's early strike and Francis Coquelin's header, but the visitors emerged for the second period a different team, with half-time substitute Diaz in inspired form.

The Reds will now face either Real Madrid or Manchester City in Paris in the third Champions League final of Klopp’s glorious reign.
