Liverpool have qualified for the semi-finals of the Europa League in dramatic fashion as they came from two goals down to beat Borussia Dortmund 4-3.

 

The first half ended with the Germans 2-0 up  early  goas from Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang.

Impressive Belgium player, Divock Origi, reduced the deficit at the start of the second period to keep the Reds' hopes alive.

Marco Reus restored the visitors' two-goal lead and they might have thought it was over but Liverpool did not despair.

Philippe Coutinho scored to make it 3-2 and defender Mamadou Sakho equalised later with a header.

Dejan Lovren scored in stoppage time to give Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp, a memorable win over his former side and a semi-final place with the 5-4 aggregate win.
