The Champions League has an all-England final for the first time since Chelsea and Manchester United squared off in the 2008 tournament.

Tottenham defeated tournament darlings Ajax, a Dutch club from Amsterdam, by a score of 3-2 on Wednesday, despite trailing 2-0 at halftime. Tottenham's Lucas Moura found the back of the net in the final minute of extra time to put Tottenham through to the finals, where they'll face off with Liverpool.
