[ad_pod ]Tottenham Hotspur secured one of the greatest Champions League comebacks of all time on Wednesday night thanks to a Lucas Moura hat-trick.In the aftermath of proceedings, the former Spurs player Peter Crouch posted a tweet which just about summed up the mood of spectators worldwide.
Crouch’s tweet arrived at the end of a fixture which somehow trumped the drama the footballing world witnessed earlier in the week.
First Vincent Kompany scored a 25-yard-screamer to put Manchester City within touching distance of the Premier League title, Liverpool secured a 4-0 win over Barcelona at Anfield a day later, overturning a 3-0 defeat from the first-leg and then Spurs went and did the unthinkable and topped the lot.
Two nil down at half-time against a supremely talented Ajax side, Moura scored the three most important goals of his career to secure a remarkable comeback and set up an all-English-Final for the first time since the 2007/08 season, when Manchester United prevailed over Chelsea on penalties.
This week has to go down as one of the greatest football has seen in its recent history but, as Crouch says, everyone’s in need of a breather after watching the unprecedented drama unfold.
