Lucas hat-trick sends Spurs into Champions League final

Lucas Moura scored a dramatic 96th-minute winner to cap a brilliant hat-trick as Tottenham fought back from three goals down on aggregate to stun Ajax 3-2 on Wednesday and set up a Champions League final against Liverpool.

After a 1-0 victory in London last week, Ajax appeared in total control after first-half goals from Matthijs de Ligt and Hakim Ziyech.

But Moura scored twice in four second-half minutes before the Brazilian sent Spurs into only the second ever all-English final, against Liverpool in Madrid on June 1, on away goals with his last-gasp effort.

Head Coach of Spurs in an interview after the match said, ”Thank you football. Thank you this team. We have a group of players that are heroes. they showed today big balls. The second half was amazing. Emotional now. Thank you for the fans, the people that believe. It is difficult to describe with words”.

According to him, his players are all heroes, but Lucas Moura is a super hero!
