Lucas Moura's hat-trick put Tottenham Hotspur in the Champions League final on away goals as they beat Ajax Amsterdam 3-2 on Wednesday.
Ajax was ahead 2-0 in the first half after captain Matthijs de Ligt and Hakim Ziyech scored in the fifth and 35th minute, and it looked certain that the Amsterdam team will ake the finals. However, Tottenham changed the course of the game in the second half as Moura scored in the 55 minute to give the Spurs some hope.
Four minutes later, an equaliser from Moura kept both teams on edge in a thrilling match. The Brazilian sealed the win for Tottenham with a goal in the corner in the sixth minute of stoppage time.
Ajax, having won the first leg 1-0, nearly booked their berth in their first final in 23 years. But Moura's last-gasp winner ensured that Tottenham entered the final. Tottenham will face Liverpool in the final on June 2 at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid.
