ANKARA (AA) - English football club Liverpool came back from a three-goal deficit to beat Spanish powerhouse Barcelona 4-0 Tuesday and qualified for the UEFA Champions League final.

Liverpool was victorious thanks to a stellar performance at home in Anfield Stadium.

The team’s Belgian striker Divock Origi and Dutch midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum scored two goals each against Barcelona.

Barcelona wasted a big advantage as the Spanish giants had toppled Liverpool 3-0 last week in the first leg of the Champions League semifinal at the Nou Camp stadium.

Liverpool has advanced to the final to be held on June 1 in Madrid and are awaiting their opponents.

They will face Dutch club Ajax or England's Tottenham Hotspur at Wanda Metropolitano stadium.

Ajax beat Tottenham 1-0 last week in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals.

The second leg will be played on May 8 in Amsterdam.
