UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMIFINAL-               Lucas Moura scored three second-half goals to produce one of the most famous victories in Tottenham Hotspur';s history, as they recovered from 3-0 down on aggregate to beat Ajax 3-3 on away goals and progress through to their first Champions League final.

The Dutch side cruised into a 2-0 lead in the first half of the second leg, adding to their 1-0 advantage from the first leg, only for Lucas to score three times in an incredible second half.

The third of Lucas';s goal arrived in the sixth minute of added time, completing yet another remarkable turnaround in the competition, 24 hours after Liverpool beat Barcelona 4-3 on aggregate.

It sets up an all-English final between Spurs and Liverpool in Madrid on June 1, while Arsenal and Chelsea are on course to contest the Europa League final later this month.
