With a little over 10 minutes to go, substitute Gerard Deulofeu’s curling chip inspired the comeback, before captain Troy Deeney hammered in a penalty in injury time.
Deulofeu scored again in extra time to make it 3-2.
Fans are already excitedly counting down the days to their FA Cup Final date with Manchester City on May 18.
In the meantime, supporters got to meet two of their Wembley heroes.
