A Lucas Moura hat trick which included a last-minute effort ensured the Lilywhites cancelled out two first half strikes from De Ligt and Hakim Ziyech to roar in the final of the prestigious competition on the away goals rule.

Nigerian Twitter users were clearly thrilled with how Mauricio Pochettino's side secured the victory and have lauded their mountainous achievement thus :
