Play by play
- 95'
Thanks for your company. Until next time....
- 95'
That's it! A huge roar goes up from the travelling fans and they've every right to be delighted. Their team has beaten the Spanish champions 2-1 home and away and should prove a very stiff test for whoever they meet in the quarter finals.
- 94'
This is the FOURTH time in a row Real have exited the Champions League in the knockout stages. Not good enough for a club of their stature.
- 93'
Vucinic has been SUPERB since he came on and thoroughly deserves his goal. Cannavaro goes to sleep, the striker gets in front of him and nods past Casilla, who was in no man's land.
- 92'
GOAL! It's all over now. Vucinic gets his head to a Totti free kick and we have a winner.
- 91'
Guti is having a go at Pannucci for diving there. That's the pot calling the kettle black int it?
- 90'
There will be four minutes added...
- 89'
Awful football from Roma. Pannucci smashes the ball well over the bar when Taddei should have been given the ball. He would have been clean through!
- 88'
Torres delays his cross and wins a corner for Real but the delivery is poor yet again. How many times have I said that tonight?! I mean, I could at least deliver a corner for £100,000 a week!
- 87'
Ooh, De Rossi goes close after Taddei nodded across goal. Oh, the flag was up though.
- 86'
Cicinho is off and Christian Pannucci is on. One former Real player makes way for another.
- 86'
Vicunic wins a free kick from Torres. He's looked mustard since he's come on.
- 85'
Roberto Soldado is on for Baptista. Five minutes left for Real to find a goal.
- 84'
Roma break from the free kick and have three on three before cicinho is selfish and tries to chip Casillas from 40 yards. Bad decision.
- 83'
Now Tonetto is carded for hauling down Drenthe. Another chance to get men in the box for Real.
- 82'
Aquilani gets booked after chopping down Guti, who was in full flow. It was frustration more than anything, as it was his misplaced pass which gave possession away.
- 81'
Robinho and Raul find time for a high five after winning a throw in. Come on lads, get in the box.
- 80'
Roma could have profited from Real's attacking abandon with a decent counter there but Vucinic can't find Totti who was unmarked.
- 79'
Drenthe again goes on a mazy run and delivers a cross which Doni fumbles slighty and concedes a corner.
- 78'
The crowd are bang up for this now as Robinho wins a corner.
- 78'
Finally, a little respite. Its all Madrid now though, as you'd expect.
- 77'
Drenthe curls in a cross and Doni tips over, unsure of where his crossbar was.
- 76'
So, Real need one more goal to draw level on aggregate. If they do we'll have extra time.
- 75'
Well, you wait all game for a goal then two come along at once, swiftly preceeded by a red card. I'm struggling to keep up!
- 75'
Robinho lays it off, Raul turns (but looked suspiciously offside) and plants a lovely right footed strike wide of Doni. Game on. Again.
