Congratulations to Villarreal, they tried to achieve something quite difficult. With the game he played in the first half, many believed that he would beat Liverpool, but in the second half, Liverpool scored goals and became the team that made it to the final.
Despite everything, Villarreal played very well and if they had finished the match with a score like in the first half, we would have watched a match that will go down in history

I agree. I mean in the end we can only congratulate Villareal for an amazing and totally unexpected performance in this Champions League season. Of course the team and their fans will probably still be pretty sad today, because after the first half yesterday it really looked like they could also manage to eliminate Liverpool, but sadly it was not quite enough in the end after all. Still they managed to eliminate Juventus in the round of the last 16 and even Bayern Munich in the quarterfinals. I guess not many people would have thought that Villareal would be capable of doing this and the great performance of yesterdays first half also proved that Villareal was not just lucky so far. I hope they can keep their team together.

Liverpool have been the most 'killer' when it comes to scoring. They do show the most chances not converted true,,, but percentage wise they are converting their xG (expected goals) at a higher rate than most other teams, so that is definitely translating to more goals if you give them the chance.

Villareal must win this, so from the first half if they do not attack then they have no hope.

I would not say impossible for them to beat Liverpool though. Just whether it is enough to qualify?

with them being required to play on the attack from the start would have put the risk of conceding even greater, but whatever happens Villarreal will have to do that as they are already 2 goals down.
with the quality that Liverpool have maybe I think it will be difficult for Villarreal to beat Liverpool by 2 goals, they are very lost in quality and consistency, but although nothing is impossible but I do not believe that Villarreal will again be able to make a surprise.

Well, I guess most people predicted the right final result,,, but surely not the right starting result!

Last week we got a treat from Real Madrid and Manchester City to give us 7 goals,,, and last night Liverpool and Villarreal decided to give us a treat with 5 goals. I think it is some amazing thing to see semifinals being contested with so many goals. Already we have 14 goals from 3 games and one more yet to come. Tonight BTTS is a must play bet I would say!

It was an excellent first half. It was a classic and interesting match with a high intensity level. During the first half, Villarreal surprised Liverpool and took control of the game. Liverpool outplayed Villarreal in the second half, demonstrating their experience. Their place in the final is well deserved. Congratulations to Liverpool club, and congratulations to coach. This is Liverpool's 10th appearance at the European Cup Finals.

Villarreal showed me very quickly that I was wrong in saying that the matter of reaching the final is already settled after the first game. The first half was perfect in their performance. In the second half, however, we saw Liverpool playing at their highest level and Villarreal's dreams were quickly over. However, the hosts deserve a lot of applause, Unai Emery has created a really great team. However, I am concerned that this team may quickly disintegrate, as Villarreal may not even qualify to the cups next season, and the top players will certainly be able to pick from the big clubs' offers.

There are still other European tournaments and currently Villarreal are in the place or zone for the Europa Conference League, but Villarreal also still has a chance to get a ticket to the Europa League which currently has a 4-point gap with Real Sociedad as the closest team whose position can be taken over. So that way Villarreal won't be ruined because they still have that chance and also, losing some players maybe in the future due to big club offers is not a problem because that is a common thing in football and they will still be great.

Fans should be proud of their team, Villarreal almost made it but their breathe wasn't enough for a comeback in full time. After it went 2-0 Liverpool was very nervous but when first goal came the atmosphere changed quickly. Villarreal was already the underdog and they had a great Champions League season. I don't know when they will achieve it again. Liverpool is in finals, let's see which team will be their opponent. Manchester City has advantage for now.

Villarreal should have won the gamei it would have affected Liverpool performance for the rest of their game, Villarreal made a better performance that Liverpool were so nervous, it was as if at that point no hope for Liverpool to meet up. After Villarreal had scored the 2 goals they should have put eyes on Liverpool by not giving Liverpool any chance or opportunity for the ball to reach the their net, Liverpool is a strong team indeed to succeed in scoring 3 goals within a short time.

Villarreal started the game with unparalleled intensity as they completely rattled Liverpool. They actually made quite a strong start to the game as they had them completely shell-shocked. Villarreal's press to win major duels and transitionary passing had Liverpool quite caught up. The sheer determination to go through was evident. It was a shame they had to go out this way despite a valiant effort. It is unfortunate that you cannot keep a good team out through out the game. Liverpool found their mojo following the restart, I knew that Liverpool will come alive in the second half and with the intensity and energy Villarreal had used in the first half to score both goals, I knew they won't be able to maintain that energy and composure in the second half.

Liverpool showed their class in the UEFA Champions League. Jurgen Klopp is a great figure behind Liverpool 2-3 win over Villarreal. While Mohammed Salah could not play freely in the match due to a tight escort by Villarreal players, Jurgen Klopp instead included L. Diaz by replacing Diego Jota.

The result, within 5 minutes, two goals were created by Liverpool through Fabinho and Luis Diaz until Liverpool finally won thanks to Sadio Mane third goal and Luis Diaz became the best player in this match.
In my opinion, Liverpool opponent is not Manchester City, but Real Madrid.

I almost thinking Villareal will made a history because leading 2-0 in the first half is quite amazing but indeed Liverpool was not give up and can equalized even win and in this match Diaz makes Liverpool performance different because after his goal Liverpool performance was better and i think Liverpool under Klopp had best achievement this season because so far Liverpool will faced 2 upcoming final matches for FA Cup and Champion league

Liverpool was the better teams overall in this 2nd leg and they deserved their victory. Respect to Villareal though. A miracle was in the air and in the reach of a possible outcome.

At the moment, the quotes of the teams for tomorrow's game are as follows:

4,60 - 4,10 - 1,72

I think a bet on Liverpool looks attractive as I think Villarreal will have to play more openly to try to bounce back so Liverpool will have more chances to score than even in the first game. Even if the game ends with a score of 2-3, but it will be a victory for Liverpool.

I think 1.72 is a good quote for a Liverpool win.

Both teams to score is at 1.7 and more than 2.5 goals is at 1.66

Out of those 3 bets I like Liverpool to win the most. It could be easily a 0-2 or similar result. Villareal will have to play more openly, but I think Liverpool is just to strong for them. The game has just started let's hope for an entertaining football night

All those 3 bets won yesterday. I wonder if this will be the case again for tonight's game. Real Madrid almost always is a guarantee for many goals and Man City is likely to score themselves too!

Villareal put up a great match in the first half but it all fell apart after Liverpool turned things around to score 2-3 honestly it was an interesting match I guessed wrongly thought the match would not be this exciting but congrats Liverpool to another final.

Congratulation to Liverpool for the massive victory they achieved from Villarreal home. Many people thought Villarreal will maintain the 2-0 they got from the first half till the end of the match, but Liverpool coach later made some changes that made the game to change for the favour of Liverpool to defeated Villarreal to qualify for UEFA Europa final. Based on what people experienced from the match today, showed that Liverpool players need to improve More because their performance in the first half was very poor which was not giving people joy at the moment until Liverpool returned back second half to defeated Villarreal.

It is supported by carelessness of Liverpool. Klopp warned his players about the danger from Villareal but their players did not really take it into consideration. Having a first conceded goal after 3 minutes is terrible. That lifts up the mentality and motivation of Villareal players.

They should feel proud of what they did. Liverpool undeniably are a stronger team and they have more experience than Villareal in Champions League. If you know, Liverpool have appeared in 3 per 4 latest Champions League finales.

In the match, in the second half, they came back very strong. And after the equalizer, I know the match is ended for Villareal.

Really few believed that Villarreal would be competitive at this stage of the Champions League, even more so after having lost 2-0 in the first leg.
It was a fantastic game, with 5 goals in total. Villareal showed why they managed to reach the semi-finals and beat big clubs. But Liverpool is Liverpool... hard for anyone to beat them. In the second part, they demonstrate why it is one of the best teams today.

Will we have another exciting game today? I think it's difficult to predict who will win, Real Madrid or Man City.

Liverpool 2nd half comeback was extravagantly beautiful that blew everybody's mind. They have shown how determined they are to win Villarreal(home and away).
Well done Liverpool for showing us good football. I was astonished by their performance, wasn't expecting the win after conceiving 2 goals in the first half.
Finals: Liverpool vs Manchester City is the match am looking out for

I think that Unai Emery choose the wrong tactic for the game.
After the early goal,Villarreal had to step back and play in a more defensive style.Then,they had to seek for a second goal at the end of the second half.I know that this seems risky,but wasting all your energy in the first half and losing momentum in the second half against a team like Liverpool seems like a suicide.
Great work done by Jurgen Klopp.He did the right replacements to improve his team's play and he managed to motivate his players during the half time.
I'm expecting an English final at this year's edition of the UEFA Champions league.

Right, at least Villarreal giving a good fight against Liverpool unlike the first leg, they really got humiliated by Liverpool. It seems Villarreal is put all their power and stamina on the first half, but the second half Liverpool comeback and beat Villarreal. It was expected Villarreal would lose since their best striker e.g. Danjuma didn't play. I don't know what's the reason Unai Emery make that decision.

It was a good match
after the first half I also hoped for something more for Villareal, unfortunately it wasn't like that
He gave all the first half draining his forces, Liverpool wisely managed and let this force vent and then hit hard in the second half.

There was an incredible difference between Liverpool playing in the first half and Liverpool playing in the second half. The same can be said for Villarreal. They lived by incredible faith at the Villarreal halftime. However, here Klopp stepped in and Luis Diaz's move brought action to Liverpool. Considering the mistakes made by the Villarreal goalkeeper in the first and last goal, it would not be wrong to say that Villarreal lost with goalkeeper errors. Meanwhile, Mane is an incredible player who has scored 15 goals. Let's see which team Liverpool will match in the final.

It is unbelievable to see Villareal scored two goals in the fisrt half and equalized the aggregated result like that. It is more surprising to see Liverpool scored 3 goals and come back. One more surprise, two goals of Liverpool scored under scrotch of Villareal goalkeeper.

This is football, the unpredictable can happen. Villarreal started the first half very well, Unai Emery men managed to close the first half with a score of 2-0, while making Agg 2-2. In the second half Villarreal started to run out of gas, Liverpool used this opportunity well. Three goals were successfully created by Liverpool against Villarreal at the same time closing the match with a score of 2-3 or Agg 2-5 for Liverpool's victory. Previously I hoped that Liverpool would go to the final, because it would present an exciting match in the last round on the most prestigious stage among European clubs.

Villarreal's struggle and unyielding spirit should be appreciated unlike in the first match where Villarreal couldn't do much at Anfield, where in the match this morning Liverpool were almost surprised by the hosts Villarreal who scored 2 goals in the first half through Boulaye Dia's goal and a header goal from Francis Coquelin opened hope for the hosts, but everything changed in the second half where Liverpool showed that they are strong candidates to win the Champions League this season where Liverpool successfully made a comeback by scoring 3 goals at once in the second half which put Liverpool ahead on aggregate 5- 2 and qualify for the finals against the winner between Manchester city and real Madrid
