Reliving History

On May, 7, 2019 the world witnessed what is being considered one of the best comebacks in soccer Champions League history. Two teams that were no strangers to comebacks, Liverpool and Barcelona, were set to square off in the second leg of the semi-finals. The game was to be played at Anfield. The score going into the game was 3-0 in favor of Barcelona. In soccer knockout games for club play go by an aggregate goal rule. With the total goals being tallied up at the end of both games. If the score is tied on aggregate then the winner is decided by the team that has scored more away goals. In this video that was made by Liverpool F.C. you will be able to see all of the behind the scenes action of the game.

The video provides highlights and flash points of the game just like any other video recapping the game. However, unlike other highlight videos, this captures the emotions of the game. Instead of listening to a commentator's voice describe what is happening, we have just footage and audio of the game. It is raw and some parts are left uncut. The camera takes us places that we cannot see like the locker rooms, the player tunnels and even onto the field itself. There are very little restrictions. The cameras filming the fans is a story in itself. All of the passion and love for the team and game can be seen on their faces. This video gives us a side of the game we do not get to see on T.V. and makes us feel as if we are at the game and at certain times we are on the field with the players as history is made.
