Tottenham have reached the Champions League semi-finals for the first time in their history.

Mauricio Pochettino's men suffered a 4-3 defeat at Manchester City in their quarter-final second leg, but the clash ended 4-4 on aggregate, helping Spurs advance to the next round on away goals.

There was some late drama in the game as the video assistant referee ruled out what would have been a winning goal for City.

Elsewhere, Liverpool cruised to a 4-1 win at Porto that saw them win the quarter-final tie 6-1 on aggregate.

The Premier League leaders will face Barcelona in the semi-final, while Tottenham will take on Ajax.
