We all need a little laughter in our lives, especially during these uncertain times, so we've rehashed one of talkSPORT's most memorable calls for you.

Sports Bar host Andy Goldstein was reduced to tears of laughter by a Liverpool fan who clearly had absolutely no idea, not one Scooby, about the Champions League away goals rule.

Steve the Red called into the show to reveal his apparent delight at Liverpool’s 0-0 draw with Bayern Munich in the first leg of their round-of-16 tie last season.

He was delighted because he believed the Anfield stalemate meant the Reds had a HUGE advantage for the return leg in Germany... right?

“You have to remember, Andy, that away goals count double."

Well, sort of, Steve but continue…

“So if we score, Bayern have to score two to win."

Yep, Steve, go on...

"If we score two, they have to score four. If we score three, they have to score six.”

Err, what? No, Steve!

Someone please explain the rules to Steve, we’re still laughing! Goldstein himself was reduced to fits of laughter and called Steve's call 'the most amazing thing I've ever heard!'

Listen back to the astonishing talkSPORT call in all its glory above...

In a way, Steve ended up having the last laugh as Liverpool managed to get past Bayern - earning an excellent 3-1 win at the Allianz Arena.

Liverpool then went on to win the Champions League last season, beating Tottenham in the final in a magical run that saw them claim an incredible 4-3 aggregate victory over Barcelona in the semi-finals.

The Reds are on the cusp of winning their first ever Premier League, needing a maximum of two more wins if football makes a return in the summer.

They may be given the title anyway due to their huge lead.

Hopefully Steve doesn't think that will count as two titles... that's really not how it works!
