However, doubles from Divock Origi and Georginio Wijnaldum gave Jurgen Klopps men a 4-0 win on Tuesday night to book their place in next months Champions League final.Carragher, who was part of the Liverpool team that came from three goals down against AC Milan to win the Champions League final in 2005, could not contain his emotions on social media.He wrote: Greatest night ever at Anfield! #LIVBAR @ChampionsLeague.Prior to the game, Barcelona had tweeted: We score, Liverpool need FIVE – and we’re going to get at least one… agreed? #LFCBara (1-0, agg 1-3).And that tweet came back to haunt them as they were mocked by Liverpool fans at full-time.Carragher quoted the tweet with the eyes emoji to poke fun at Barca, with the Reds instead progressing to play their second successive Champions League final.Danny Murphy, another former Liverpool star, admitted he was emotional watching Liverpool pull off their remarkable comeback.He told Sky Sports: “Ive got goosebumps watching the celebrations. Its personal to me, I was there as a kid watching and been there as a player. It brings back a lot of memories.They achieved something insurmountable in many respects. They lost [Roberto] Firmino and [Mohamed] Salah, they were unlucky in the last game, [Manchester] City had won last night, how they picked themselves up to produce that energy and quality is amazing.
