Players celebrate Liverpool’s Champions League win over Manchester City
The Reds are through to the semi-finals after a 5-1 aggregate victory.
Liverpool survived a Manchester City onslaught at the Etihad Stadium to reach the Champions League semi-finals, securing a 2-1 victory and a 5-1 aggregate success.
Gabriel Jesus opened the scoring after just two minutes on Tuesday but second-half goals from Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino killed off any hopes of a City fightback.
Here, Press Association Sport looks at some of the reaction to Liverpool’s win.
Liverpool’s players were elated…

Dietmar Hamann, who won the Champions League with Liverpool in 2005, was quick to congratulate his former club.
Well done @LFC, gritty and resilient. Got a touch lucky with the offside goal but you have to take advantage when you do. Dream is still alive #YNWA
