The England Club Tottenham has entered the final of the Champions League Football. Overcoming the deficit in the first leg of a goal against Ajax, Tottenham returned to the Champions League Football by a dramatic second half hat trick, making an aggregate of 3-3 against Ajax, settling the win with an away goal. Tottenham defeated Ajax 3-2.
Trailing 1-0 from the first leg, Tottenham made the worst possible start in Amsterdam when the 19-year-old Ajax captain rose above all on the penalty spot and planted a header. De Ligt scores the opener for Ajax in the fifth minute of the game. Hakim Ziyech doubled Ajax's lead on the night when he sent a sensational strike into the top right at 35 minutes of the game gaining a two scored lead(aggregate 3-0) against Tottenham before the first half ended.
Though the first half left Spurs 3-0 behind on aggregate yet, Lucas Moura reduced the deficit for Tottenham with a composed hat-trick in the 55th, 59th and 90+6 minutes of the game. He scored twice in the space of five minutes in the second half. Moura completed his hat-trick with a left-foot shot from 16 yards deep into stoppage time as Spurs won on away goals to reach their first Champions League final. With this Moura now is the fifth player to score a Champions League semi-final hat-trick. Although, Ajax made 3-0 on aggregate before half-time but Tottenham somehow pulled themselves together to reach the final of the Champions League Football.
Tottenham now faces Liverpool in the finals of the Champions League in Madrid on 1 June.
