This is perhaps the greatest comeback in Champions League history. After a 0-4 defeat in France, few believed that Barcelona could perform a miracle at their home stadium Camp Nou.

But football is full of surprises. Barca played a match of their lives, with stars shining and dramatic late goals, sealing a 6-1 victory and advancing 6-5 on aggregate.

A year later, Barca fell victim to another comeback. Beating Roma 4-1 in the first leg, it seemed like their ticket to the semi-finals was in their hands.

But Roma played a brave game at the Olimpico, with the home crowd cheering them on, scoring three goals, turning the tables, and knocking Barca out of the quarter-finals on away goals.

This was one of the most embarrassing defeats in Barca's history, showing their fragility when under great pressure.

A year later, Barca were again the victims of a magical night at Anfield. Winning 3-0 in the first leg, they completely collapsed under the terrible pressure of the "Red Brigade".

Liverpool played an emotional match, with Divock Origi and Georginio Wijnaldum shining. They scored 4 goals, successfully came from behind to advance to the final.

Although the task of coming back against Arsenal is almost impossible, with the spirit of the champion and the strength at home at Bernabeu, Real Madrid still has a glimmer of hope to create a magical night in the second leg taking place in the early morning of April 17 (Vietnam time).
