A game like the one that ended just 90 minutes ago doesn’t need much words to explain it. The Craziest match seen this season in Europe and one of the best ever to be played in the Champions League.

Chelsea and Liverpool finished their 2nd leg of the Champions League Quarter Final in a thrilling (big understatement) 4-4 draw. Liverpool opened with 2 goals within the first half hour from Fabio Aurelio and a penalty kick from Xabi Alonso to take them leading 2-0 at the half.
