So my favorite one, in fact, is, uh, Czechia versus the Netherlands at Euro 20, uh, 2004.
You remember that one? I don't know if you do because obviously that's, that's a long time ago, and I'm mentioning this one because I'm Czech.
That was a, such a, such a memorable game for all Czech people, for all Czech football fans.
But there have been a lot of other incredible comebacks, for instance, in the Champions League.
I believe they were 3-0 down on aggregate at halftime, and then Lucas Moura scored a hat trick, including a last minute winner or something like that happened, right? And then of course, we have to mention, uh, Cristiano Ronaldo himself, uh, with Juventus against Atletico Madrid in 2019.
But I know it involved Cristiano Ronaldo, and they lost their first game, I think...
I don't know, was it two or three-nil? I, I just know that in the returning fixture, Ronaldo scored a hat-trick, yeah, for Juventus, and then they turned it around.
And of course, if we wanna go really far back, there was this famous Champions League final involving, uh, Manchester United and Bayern Munich, and, um, Manchester United turned the game around in the dying minutes of the game.
Remember that one? I'm sure you all guys have your favorite comeback, maybe involving your country or your favorite club.
Maybe you played a tennis match and you were five, five-nil down and, uh, 40-love, [laughs] and then you turned it around.
Uh, could you please leave a comment and tell me what it was? I'm quite curious what your sort of most memorable moment is.
