Welcome to the fifth instalment of this six-episode series of Beyond the Score - Champions League edition, brought to you by Stan Sport.

Join us in taking deep dives into some of the greatest matches in this storied European competition's history. 

This week, special guest's Ben and Simeon Daniel from 'We Are Tottenham TV' take us through their memorable trip to Amsterdam in 2019 to watch their side overturn a 3-0 deficit on aggregate in 45 minutes to beat Ajax and secure a first ever Champions League final berth.

The 2018/19 Champions League campaign as a whole may go down as the greatest tournament ever for the sheer amount of dramatic comebacks during the knockout stages, but it all climaxed at the semi-final stage.

Before you had time to catch your breath from Liverpool's unimaginable comeback against Barcelona, fellow English side Tottenham went one better just 24 hours later.

With 45 minutes left to make amends on 135 minutes of torturous football, Tottenham needed a hero to help find three goals, and that’s exactly what they got.

Back-to-back goals in quick succession from Brazilian Lucas Moura within 14 minutes of the second-half pulled the deficit to one, before he sealed his hat-trick and the comeback with the very last kick of the game. Cue, pandemonium.

Sit back and enjoy as Ben and Simeon take us through what it was like to be there on that night at the Johan Cruyff Arena.
