45 minutes to comeback from 3-0 down against one of the most exciting teams in Europe? Better call Lucas Moura.
The Brazilian will forever be a hero in North London (well... the white side of North London) after single-handedly sending Spurs to the Champions League final.
Tottenham went into the half-time break 3-0 down on aggregate against Ajax, but Moura wasn't giving up.
The 26-year-old scored two goals in four minutes, before leaving it until the depths of injury time to complete his hat-trick and book Spurs' place in the Madrid final against domestic rivals Liverpool.
Obviously Twitter erupted with praise for the hat-trick hero.
What a moment for Lucas Moura!
