The Italians put in an efficient performance to win the tie 4-2 on aggregate and consign the Spanish champions to a last-16 stage exit for the fourth successive season. The game finally came to life in the 15th minute when Roma keeper Alexandre Doni needed to get down well to his left to push Julio Baptista’s deflected free-kick out for a corner. Shortly afterwards, Alberto Aquilani had two great chances to almost put the Italians in front. He firstly hit the post with a wonderful shot from 35-yards out and then hit another long distance shot which Real keeper Iker Casillas did well to get down to save and push out for a corner.
