LFC’s thrashing of Barcelona the most viewed YouTube video in the UK in 2019

Posted by

The highlights of our famous comeback against Barcelona in the Champions League, posted by BT Sports after the game, is the most popular YouTube video in the UK for 2019.

It looks set to reach 10million views by the end of the year, which means it’s been watch more by British people than juggernauts The Late Late Show with James Corden and Britain’s Got Talent.

It just goes to show how big of a club we are, and how impressive of a game it was. I mean – when we take a step back, and think about thrashing Barcelona 4-0 after being battered 3-0 – it sounds daft.

The game will go down in history as perhaps the greatest comeback in Champions League history, especially as we went on to win the whole thing, but I can think of another famous game in 2005 that may be able to take the biscuit!

Spurs’ comeback against Ajax will always be impressive, but people at the time were getting too caught up in the emotions of the game – yes, it was a wonderful game, but it wasn’t the same was what we did.

In terms of musicians, Stormzy, Sam Smith, Billie Eilish and Ariana Grande all made it into the top ranks – with music seemingly being one of YouTube’s primary offerings.
