On this very day last year Liverpool pulled off one of the greatest comebacks in the history of the sport.
After losing 3-0 to Barcelona in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final, Liverpool were faced with the impossible at Anfield.
The Reds were meant to crash out of the competition at the expense of Lionel Messi and co. but Liverpool, spurred on by the crowd, had other ideas.
Divock Origi and Georginio Wijnaldum got the goals, and somehow Liverpool progressed to the final of the tournament.
After the match Jose Mourinho reflected on how the Reds were able to pull off such an achievement, and concluded one man was to thank: Klopp.
"I didn't expect it, I said impossible is nothing," said Mourinho on beIN Sports.
"I said if it's possible, Anfield is one of the places to make the impossible be possible, But I have to say that for me, this has one name – Jurgen.
"I think this is not about tactics, this is not about philosophy, this is about heart and soul, and a fantastic empathy he created with this group of players.
"They had the risk of finishing a fantastic season without anything to celebrate, and now they are one step from being European champions.
"I think Jurgen deserves, you know, the work they are doing in Liverpool is fantastic. But I think this is about him, this is a reflection of his personality, don't give up, a fighting spirit, every playing giving everything.
"He's not crying because he's missing a player, he's not crying because they are playing 50 or 60 matches per season.
"Other coaches in other leagues they are crying, saying their players are playing too many matches when they play 30 or 35 matches. Everything I think today is about Jurgen's mentality."
