A defiant Liverpool fan told talkSPORT ‘Barcelona have never seen a team like us’ despite the Reds being beaten 3-0 at the Nou Camp on Wednesday night.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have been given a mountain to climb to progress to the Champions League final for the second year running, but one supporter said his team ‘dominated’ the Spanish giants.
Liverpool did enjoy a lot of possession in the semi-final first leg, but failed to find the net, though there were a host of great chances to do so.

Liverpool were beaten by a Lionel Messi-inspired Barca at the Nou Camp
Meanwhile, Luis Suarez came back to haunt the Merseysiders and an inspired Lionel Messi, who scored a landmark 600th Barcelona goal with an immaculate free-kick, led the hosts to victory, one which means Liverpool have to score at least four goals when they meet again at Anfield on Tuesday.
It could have been even worse had Barcelona not fluffed a number of late chances which could have made the score 4-0 or 5-0.
But, if you listened to this Kopite on Wednesday night’s Sports Bar, you may have thought it was a completely different scoreline.

Dan the Red waxed lyrical about his team’s performance, insisting they out-played the LaLiga winners, and even said there were ‘shades of Cruyff’s Ajax’ in Liverpool’s display.
Total football, indeed. Can someone tell him they lost the game, please?
Listen to this quite incredible clip from The Sports Bar below:
Dan: “We dominated that game today, we got robbed of a penalty and as far as I’m concerned, mate, 3-0 does not tell the story of that game, mate.
“We dominated them for large sections of that game, they got lucky.
“They’ve never seen a team like us, mate. We were out-playing them on their own pitch, mate.
Andy Goldstein: “Whaaaat?! Come on! You wish to be as good as them, Dan!â€

Jason Cundy: “You say outplaying them, but they were comfortable. I thought defensively they were a better side than I thought they were.â€
Dan: “No they weren’t comfortable, mate, we had a lot of clear-cut chances. Milner should have scored, Mane should have scored, Salah should have scored.
“We didn’t land any punches but we created a lot of good chances.
“There were shades of Cruyff’s Ajax in our team tonight, we were by far the better team!â€
