'We didn't plan it!' - Divock Origi explains iconic Barcelona moment for Liverpool

Origi spent eight years at Anfield before leaving to sign for AC Milan last summer. He has since returned to the Premier League and plays for Nottingham Forest on loan.

Former Liverpool forward Divock Origi has opened up on his best ever moments for the club, as he reminisced and picked out his favourite goals.

Origi, 28, returned to English football this summer after a brief hiatus with AC Milan to join Nottingham Forest but the Belgian has played just eight times, totalling a mere 151 minutes. His only start came in the 5-0 loss to Fulham and he is yet to find the back of the net in what has been a difficult start to life under Steve Cooper.

However, across his time on Merseyside, he featured 175 times as he netted 41 times and provided 18 assists but, despite not being a regular starter, he has been part of some of the most iconic moments from the Jurgen Klopp era and has written himself into Liverpool folklore.

With plenty of moments to choose from, Origi reflected on his time at Liverpool and spoke about his iconic goals in an interview with Sky Sports. When asked what his favourite moment was, he replied 'Barcelona or the Champions League final' before then going on to speak about the love he continues to receive from Liverpool fans. "They show a lot of love, even when I'm at the hotel - you always find a Liverpool fan and they'll speak about it!"

Origi's 'big goal' catalogue for Liverpool is hugely impressive. Famous moments include a 96th minute winner in the Merseyside derby in 2018, the second goal against Tottenham in the Champions League final, as well as late strikes against Wolves, Newcastle and West Brom.

But none will top his double against Barcelona in the 2018/19 Champions League semi-final; Jurgen Klopp's side headed into the game 3-0 down on aggregate and they were missing both Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah in what looked like an impossible task against Lionel Messi and co.

However, he netted an early tap-in to set the tone before then striking late on after he was brilliantly found by Trent Alexander-Arnold from a corner which caught the Spanish giants napping. His quick thinking was matched by what was a brilliant finish which ensured their passage to the final which they eventually triumphed in to earn their sixth European cup.

"I didn't know what was going to happen" He added when asked those iconic moments. "You're just in the flow, you're just in the game. Even the ball that came in [against Barcelona] Trent's ball, we didn't plan it! I looked back and I saw his body language and it's all just instinct - make a decision - because I saw him moving, it was a quick move and it literally happened in two seconds."
