JĆ¼rgen Klopp has never been in a situation like this at Liverpool.

Celtic may have lost to Real Madrid on Tuesday night but the home fans stood to applaud Luka ModriÄ after he was taken off towards the end of the match, having score a brilliant outside of the boot curler.
A touching moment for a stunning player.

A beautiful moment at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as goalscorer Richarlison was greeted by his parents in the stands as he netted his first goals for the club.
Reader, there was no more.

The performance of the week goes to Shakhtar Donetsk who beat RB Leipzig 4-1 on Tuesday.
