Delete - My reasons from the last discussion still stand. I don't think anything has changed in that time. The match still fails notability guidelines. As spectacular comeback it was but there have been many of them in the past. Is this more notable than the 3–1 victory against Olympiakos? The comeback against Dortmund? St Etienne? The semi-final against Chelsea in 2005? The list goes on. This information can be included in the relevant section on 2018–19 UEFA Champions League#Semi-finals rather than a separate article.

Keep: for me, this match is notable and the article definetely meets WP:GNG. Paul Vaurie (talk) 22:29, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to 2018–19 UEFA Champions League#Semi-finals. Coming from three goals down to win is impressive, but it's certainly doesn't impart notability - I've twice seen my club alone do that in 90 minutes, let alone 180. Black Kite (talk) 12:28, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It is notable as the biggest Champions League comeback at such a late stage coupled with the fact that a under-strength Liverpool beat what was the strongest team Barcelona could have put out. REDMAN 2019 (talk) 13:42, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into the 2018–19 UEFA Champions League knockout phase page. Only "routine" coverage I can find for this so doesn't necessitate its own article, but clearly a historic comeback that warrants at least some prose in that article. Similarly for the other semi-final that year, just feels dry only detailing the match as you would for a match between Stoke City and Ipswich Town. And surely the reason for having a separate article for the knockout phase is to be able to have such detail? ItsKesha (talk) 16:29, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect – We already redirected Liverpool F.C. 4–0 FC Barcelona to 2018–19 UEFA Champions League knockout phase, so why not this one too? – Pee Jay 18:51, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per consensus at last AFD. --Justanothersgwikieditor (talk) 04:42, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to somewhere suitable: 2018–19 UEFA Champions League knockout phase or 2018–19 UEFA Champions League#Semi-finals as suggested above. There's already some prose about it at 2019 UEFA Champions League Final#Liverpool (their subsection of the Road to the final section). Nothing's changed since the last AfD. It was an impressive comeback, and there was a lot of big-club hype in the media, but that's not enough to justify a standalone article. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 11:01, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect as per the consensus at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Liverpool F.C. 4–0 FC Barcelona. Also, it's probably eligible for deletion under G5 (created by sockpuppet) and G4 (previously deleted at AfD). Joseph2302 (talk) 13:13, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
