Liverpool's Champions League comeback against Barcelona as never seen before

Liverpool's dramatic comeback against Barcelona at Anfield on May 7 will go down in Champions League history as one of the greatest ever.

Following Barca's 3-0 win at the Camp Nou the odds were stacked against Jurgen Klopp's side.

But the Reds managed to score four goals on a whirlwind evening as they booked their place in the 2019 final.

With fans eager to relieve the miraculous match, highlights of the clash quickly became BT Sport's most watched video on YouTube.

But one video which has been rapidly growing in popularity is a FIFA 19 recreation of the tie.

One YouTube user named Jugando con los Parceros has gone to the incredible effort of recreating the highlights of the match using the popular video game.

The 10-minute clip includes all the main moments of the semi-final second leg, Divock Origi's opening goal, Lionel Messi's missed chances, Gini Wijnaldum's double and of course, Trent Alexander-Arnold's quick-thinking corner.

It has been watched almost one million times and must have been a painstaking task to get every moment so precise.

The YouTuber, who has 90,000 subscribers, has also recreated the Champions League final as Liverpool defeated Tottenham to claim the club's sixth European title.

That particular video has amassed 275,000 views.
