Walter Pandiani put Deportivo ahead on the scoreboard at San Siro, but that was forgotten after the good result achieved at the end of the Italian team, a game in which Kaka scored two goals. Before the second leg at the Riazor, Deportivo coach Javier Irureta dreamed of the comeback: "We know it will be very difficult, will be a challenge. Football But miracles happen, things you never think can happen."

Incredibly, his team was already ahead of the tie before the break thanks to goals from Pandiani, Juan Carlos Valeron and Albert Luque, while the substitute Fran Gonzalez became the fourth in the 76th minute. Irureta had promised to do the Camino de Santiago if he could pass: "I have to thank Santiago this victory.'ll Do the Camino de Santiago because a promise is a promise," explained Irureta.

Quarter-final 2003/04
It appeared that Monaco would fall in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League at the conclusion of the first leg at the Santiago Bernabeu on March 24, 2004. Four goals after the break, Real Madrid seemed to let the team of The Principality no options but then a goal from Fernando Morientes in 83 'left alive to visitors around. Coach Didier Deschamps would not admit defeat before the match will be played back: "If I thought that I would stay at home."

With 0-1 just seconds before halftime, Ludovic Giuly equalized, Morientes, who was on loan from Real Madrid, made it 2-1 while Giuly won the final would be 3-1. The triumph of Monaco thanks to the double value of the goals scored away from home could be gone if the shot from Raul Gonzalez had hit the crossbar in the closing stages. Morientes, meanwhile, did not celebrate the victory: "I am delighted for Monaco in Madrid but I have friends who are having a hard time."

Quarter-finals 1999/2000
Before the arrival of Roman Abramovich, Chelsea was not the European whirlwind which later became so the win in the first leg of the quarter-final against Barcelona by Louis van Gaal, with goals from Gianfranco Zola and Tore André Flo, surprised many. Still, the team Gianluca Vialli was placed 2-1 in the Camp Nou with seven minutes left after the goal but then appeared Flo Dani Garcia to make it 3-1 with which would lead to the extension. A penalty both Rivaldo and Patrick Kluivert likewise ended up giving the victory to the Catalans. Luis Figo said: "Tonight we made a perfect match."

"It was the most beautiful night of my life," he noted his partner Gabri García. "We lost in the first leg but we managed to turn the tie," said Figo. Meanwhile, Vialli made a good summary of what happened: "We have done everything that I wanted: to defend bad".

SSC Napoli - Chelsea FC 3-1
Chelsea FC - SSC Napoli 4-1 (T. P.)
Round of 2011/12
A coaching change certainly boosted Chelsea comeback. The last game of coach Andre Villas-Boas with the London club was in Naples, where despite Juan Mata ahead of the British, two goals from Ezequiel Lavezzi and Edinson Cavani over both left the tie very favorable for the picture Italian. "That away goal allows us to continue to have choices, we can trace", ventured Villas-Boas.

However, the Portuguese had already been replaced by Roberto Di Matteo in the leg. In London, goals from Didier Drogba, John Terry and Frank Lampard took the game into overtime, where Branislav Ivanović completed the feat with the 4-1 that would be final in 105 minutes. "I've lived other big nights but this may be the best in the club's history," said one Di Matteo did not know that the best was yet to come.

FC Barcelona - AC Milan 4-0
Round 2 of 2012/13

No team had recovered before two-goal deficit after the first leg without the benefit of double value of the goals scored away from home until he succeeded Barcelona at the Camp Nou. A brace from Lionel Messi leveled the tie while both David Villa very start of the second half put the Catalan side in virtually rooms.

Barca also had luck on their side, M'Baye crashed a ball on the stick, and it was not until the last minute when Jordi Alba sealed the win with the final 4-0. Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri said that Barcelona had played "extremely well" while Lionel Messi told UEFA.com: "This is the club that we and the fans want to see all the games." On Wednesday Barça need to make an equal or better performance.

Now, it´s Barrcelona´s time to make another great turnover with the bad result they had on Germany. Now, they are loosing 4'0, score from which no team has ever turned over, but I still believe in the great F.C. Barcelona, the one who won 6 important cups in matter of one year (Liga, Copa, Champions, Recopa, Supercopa Europea and the FIFA World Clubs Cup) only in 2009. Visca Barca, all together we´ll get again on Wembley!
