Liverpool produced the best Champions League comeback of the week, according to an unofficial poll conducted by Press Association Sport.

The Reds rallied from a 3-0 first-leg deficit to beat Barcelona 4-3 on aggregate after a remarkable 4-0 victory at Anfield on Tuesday.

Not to be outdone, Tottenham also made hard work of their semi-final tie against Ajax on Wednesday by coming from 3-0 down on aggregate at half-time of the second leg in Amsterdam to win on away goals.

The two English sides will meet in Madrid on June 1 to contest the final, but the row over which comeback was better fuelled plenty of debate on Twitter.

A poll conducted by @PAdugout saw 3,779 people cast their vote, with Liverpool claiming 55 per cent of the ballot and striking an early blow to their rivals.
