With the Uefa Champions League (UCL) final being one of the biggest football games, these two English teams have made it to the final against all odds. With Spurs coming from a 1 goal deficit at their home stadium to defeat the Netherland champions Ajax, this game will definitely not be a one-sided one.
The road to Madrid has not entirely been a smooth one for Jurgen Klopp and his boys. They had to battle with French Champions PSG and Italian Giants Napoli in the group stage. The round of 16 games against German Champions Bayern Munchen was not an easy one, but Klopp and his boys were eager to replicate their form of last season which saw them make it to the UCL Finals. The Quarter Final game against Porto was definitely an easy ride for them, the scorelines certainly proved that. Barcelona was a huge battle for them with Messi and his teammates thrashing The Reds at the Nou Camp in the first leg of the semi-final tie. The miracle of 2005 repeated itself at Anfield as The Reds overturned a 3 goal lead to making it to the Finals two times in a row.
Spurs, on the other hand, did not have an easy ride to Madrid. According to most pundits, Spurs had a more difficult campaign than The Reds. Facing Spanish champions And Italian giants Barcelona and Inter Milan at the group stage to facing an in-form Borussia Dortmund, Pochettino and his boys showed the world why they're one of the best teams in England. The quarterfinal games against Manchester City and Semifinals games against Ajax is proof that Pochettino and his boys are capable of upsetting any team's party.
The UCL Finals slated for June 1st is one that the world will pay close attention to. For the first time since 2008 two English sides will face off in the final. This will be a tough game for the two sides but most analysts and pundits are betting on Klopp's boys to get the job done this time since they failed to do so in Kiev last season.
With players like Heung-Min Son and Lucas Moura being in incredible form for Spurs this season, things could really go bad for Liverpool. In addition to that, Harry Kane who is arguably one of the top 5 strikers in the world will be fit for the game.
The recent happenings in the world of football are enough reason to never write off any team, Spurs inclusive.
