Manchester United came from two goals down to beat Roma in a dramatic Champions League tie on Tuesday to give manager Michael Carrick a much-needed boost as he fights to save his job.
Things were looking bleak at Old Trafford when his side found themselves 2-0 down after just 17 minutes against their Italian visitors, who had not lost in their 10 Serie A games this season.
A nine-game winless run had left Carrick's position increasingly precarious and a poor start left United facing another damaging defeat.
But they stormed back in the second half with a show of character and class that had been missing in a troubled campaign where they had previously won just twice in all competitions.
Captain Bruno Fernandes started the fightback from the penalty spot before Matheus Cunha struck twice in the space of three memorable minutes to turn the game on its head.
What had threatened to be another night to forget became unforgettable for the Old Trafford faithful, while Carrick could breathe a little easier after his side pulled off an unlikely success.
United, though, are hardly the first side to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat on Europe's biggest stage.
Here are some of the greatest comebacks in Champions League history.
Tottenham travelled to Ajax for the second leg of their semi-final trailing 1-0, and things went from bad to worse in Amsterdam when Matthijs de Ligt and Hakim Ziyech put Ajax 3-0 ahead on aggregate before the break.
Spurs needed to score three times without reply to progress on away goals, and were given a glimmer of hope 10 minutes into the second half through Lucas Moura - and it was game on just four minutes later.
Moura pounced on a loose ball in the box after Fernando Llorente's shot was saved and he curled home to put the hosts on the ropes.
The stunning turnaround was completed in the 95th minute when Moura recorded a hat-trick to seal Tottenham's spot in the final on away goals, leaving Ajax players strewn across the turf in disbelief.
Just 24 hours before Tottenham's heroics in Amsterdam, Liverpool had overturned their own three-goal deficit.
The Reds' hopes of forcing their way back into the semi-final after a 3-0 loss to Barcelona at the Nou Camp looked slim, especially with Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino unavailable because of injury.
But Divock Origi got the ball rolling on seven minutes, before the tie really turned in the space of 166 seconds after half-time when substitute Georginio Wijnaldum scored twice.
A moment of quick thinking saw Liverpool complete the job as Trent Alexander-Arnold spotted Barcelona's defence switch off from a corner, whipping the ball in low for Origi to fire home and spark wild scenes at Anfield.
"Roma have risen from their ruins."
That iconic line from commentator Peter Drury summed up an incredible night as Roma clinched a memorable comeback to send Barcelona packing in the quarter-finals.
Own goals from Daniele de Rossi and Kostas Manolas helped Barca record a 4-1 win in the first leg at the Nou Camp.
Edin Dzeko's late goal in Spain gave Roma something to build from and the forward struck early in the return leg to further strengthen their belief.
De Rossi atoned for his own goal with a second-half strike and, with just eight minutes to go, Manolas headed home a corner to end Roma's 34-year wait for a place in the semi-finals of Europe's leading competition.
Arguably the greatest comeback of all, this one is so iconic that it has its very own title in France and Spain - La Remontada (The Comeback).
PSG were clinical at home, winning 4-0, but the Nou Camp sensed something special when Luis Suarez scored after just three minutes in the second leg.
Barcelona were two goals to the good at the break courtesy of a Layvin Kurzawa own goal, but still trailed by two goals on aggregate.
Lionel Messi scored a penalty soon after the restart but Edinson Cavani hit back to silence the home faithful, although it wasn't the pendulum-swinging moment PSG hoped for.
Barcelona, now trailing 5-3, needed three goals in fewer than 30 minutes to achieve a miracle. Neymar scored a free-kick in the 88th minute to offer further hope, before the Brazilian stroked home a 91st-minute penalty to level the tie at 5-5 on aggregate.
But PSG were still heading through on away goals.
Then, with 20 seconds of added time remaining, La Remontada came to fruition when Sergi Roberto turned home Neymar's chipped pass, with Barcelona becoming the only team in history to overturn a four-goal Champions League deficit.
