Can Liverpool Do the Double?

It is needless to say that Liverpool wowed us beyond our wildest imagination last night.

In a match where everyone had given up hopes on them, they were able to return the three-nil deficit with a four unreplied goals.

At this point, they seem to be everybody’s favorite in the league. It is expected though — they pulled off one of the greatest comebacks in football history.

After yesterday’s victory and the celebration that followed, everyone is looking at what’s next for Liverpool.

They still have a shot at the Premier League title and their miraculous performance yesterday has given them a shot at the Champions League title.

So, the question now is: Can Liverpool do the double? Will they be able to win both the Premier League and the Champions League?

Let’s discuss their chances in both leagues.

Champions League

After their mind-blowing win yesterday at Anfield, Liverpool’s chances of winning the Champions League are higher than ever.

Not only did they silence those that wrote them off, they surely walked out of that match with more courage and zeal to win the Champions League.

With their hopes up and spirits high, things are definitely looking up for them.

But they still have the finals to decide their fate.

Though they have done wonderfully so far, we are hoping that there would not be a repeat of last season’s performance.

This is the second time in a row Liverpool have paved their way to the finals.

Last season, they lost the Champions League to Real Madrid at the finals. This year, their chances are higher.

Liverpool might play either Ajax or Tottenham at the finals, depending on who wins the second leg of their own semifinal.

At it seems, Ajax has an upper hand over Tottenham. They won the first leg of their semi-final match. In the second leg yet to be played, they have the home advantage working for them also.

But seeing what Liverpool did yesterday, we cannot write anyone off. Tottenham might surprise us and finally make it to the finals.

Premier League

Moving away from the Champions League, Liverpool is still in the running for the Premier League title.

Currently they hold the second spot on the table, with just a point below Manchester City.

With Liverpool’s current performance, they just might have a shot at the PL title.

They however still have a game to play, which will ultimately decide their fate. At this point, Liverpool will be going to their next match against Wolverhampton with the aim of winning the match.

Not only that, they have to earnestly hope that Manchester city lose their match or at least end their game in a draw.

Only then can they secure the Premier League title.

Liverpool has surprised us so far. Do you think that they can keep up with the winning streak in both the Champions League and the Premier league?
