    Time:90'
    • Real Madrid
    • Roma
    • 90+4 And that is the final whistle, pensive looks and the odd tear from Real as Roma progress! Only one Spanish team left in the Champions League then!
    • 90+2 Game set and match for Roma as Vucinic heads into an empty net after Real's defence make a pig's ear of Totti's free kick. 2-1 on the night, 4-2 overall.
    • 90' FOUR minutes of added time being played - more than enough for Real!!
    • 87' Free kick to Roma on the left, Totti swins it far post AND TADDEI WITH THE HEADER ACROSS GOAL AND DE ROSSI MUST SCORE BUT HE MISSES IT SLIDING IN!
    • 86' Panucci on for Cicinho as Roma waste some more seconds, a more defensive right back.
    • 85' REAL SUB: Soldado on for Baptista.
    • 84' Tonetto now booked for putting an arm into the face of Drenthe as he tried to run beyond him off the ball.
    • 83' Aquilani sees yellow for chopping down Gago to try and waste some more time.
    • 82' Vucinic wins a soft free kick on the left wing which Roma take short as they try to put the kybosh on the frantic pace Real are trying to set.
    • 81' Guti is now booked.
    • 80' Real win another corner when Doni fails to hold onto a low cross, and in his eagerness to take it quickly Raul actually gives the ball away.
    • 79' Robinho on the left, great low cross for Raul but the finish is blocked, corner Real!
    • 77' Almost a freakish second for Real as Drenthe's cross takes a wicked deflection off Cicinho, eludes Doni and lands just on the roof of the net! This second half has been a lot of fun.
    • 76' ROMA SUB: The Italians try to shore things up by bringing on holding midfielder David Pizarro. Robinho is booked somewhere along the way.
    • 75' Real look to hit back immediately, Guti on the ball slips it through to Raul who turns and fires low past Doni! 1-1! Still advantage Roma - who are convinced that there was an offside there.
    • 72' Tonetto on the left, in loads of space and he floats over a brilliant cross AND TADDEI FLIES IN WITH A BEAUTIFUL HEADER WHICH NESTLES IN THE TOP RIGHT! 1-0 to Roma on the night, 3-1 on aggregate and the Italians surely through to the last eight!
    • 70' Superb skill by Vucinic who flicks it around Pepe from the most acute of angles just outside the box, he hauls him down, free kick and a second yellow! Real down to ten men!
    • 69' Robinho nods the ball well wide after being found totally free at the far post by Drenthe, he's furious that no-one told him he had time to take it down and place the shot, although it is kind of his job to make that call.
    • 67' Cicinho now booked.
    • 66' Real counter and Juan appears to handle in the box but nothing given!
    • 66' Tonetto on the left, drills the ball low for VUCINIC WITH THE DRIVE AND THE BALL CANNONS OFF THE ANGLE OF POST AND BAR! Again the woodwork denies Roma!!
    • 65' ROMA SUB: Mancini comes off, slow as you like, for Vucinic.
    • 64' REAL SUB: Miguel Torres on for Salgado.
    • 62' Free-kick to Real, Guti again over the ball... he chips it into the area for RAUL but his header is well over.
    • 60' REAL SUB: An attacking change as Diarra - who has looked threatening offensively - trots off for Royston Drenthe.
    • 58' Guti on the left cuts inside and feeds Diarra who thrashes the ball to the top right and palmed over by Doni for a corner.
    • 56' Great delivery this time as Diarra and Juan fly in and that looked like an arm but nothing given and Roma clear!
    • 55' Max Tonetto fouls Robinho in the same position on the right wing. Guti this time will cross it into the box...
    • 54' Gago bursts forward and has his shirt tugged on the right wing, yellow for Perrotta who misses the next match. Guti to take the free kick.. he sends it low into the box looking for Robinho but Roma are alert and clear.
    • 53' Really dirty from Salgado, going late into the back of Aquilani and leaving him in a heap on the floor, the ref misses the foul but spots the injury and makes a frustrated Gago thrash it into touch.
    • 52' Real come again and Baptista can shoot but blocked and a corner to the hosts.
    • 51' Roma bursting forward, Cicinho on the right, the slide tackle comes in and the ball rebounds back to Perrotta and he can flick it over Casillas but bicycle-kicked off the line by Cannavaro! Real break but well-defended by Roma. Phew.
    • 49' Baptista stands over this one... and he sends a brilliant dipping effort over the wall and off the top of the angle of post and bar! What an effort!
    • 48' Aquilani cannot believe he has been penalised for a tug on Baptista around 25 yards out, free-kick in a dangerous position to Real...
    • 47' Cannavaro gets ahead of Taddei to shepherd the ball out of play and gets a nudge in the process, sparing his side a corner and winning a free kick.
    • 46' Second half underway!
    • 45+2 And that is the whistle, 0-0, Roma leading 2-1 on aggregate which will suit them down to the ground!
    • 45+1 A quite spectacular but ultimately hopeless attempt at a bicycle kick from Mexes at the far post, totally missing the ball. Flag is up anyway to spare his blushes, offside although he was actually level.
    • 45' One minute of injury time being played as Roma win a corner.
    • 43' Mancini takes another knock on the ankle, although no punishment meted out as there was no foul... play is stopped and Roma throw it back to Real in sportsmanlike fashion.
    • 42' Wonderful run by Baptista as he bundles past four Roma players before going to ground in the box, more due to stumbling momentum than any foul of note.
    • 41' Pepe sees yellow for a foul on Cicinho... That was a bad tackle and his compatriot is still in some pain...
    • 40' Good spell of pressure by Real sees some neat interplay betwenn Guti, Robinho and Gago, the latter playing it into Salgago in the box, who goes down awkwardly after trying to head the ball back across goal, and he's still down... but he'll be ok, just a bit winded.
    • 38' Gago goes in two-footed and late on Perrotta, who to his credit doesn't make anything of it otherwise surely that would have been a yellow.
    • 37' Rapid counter from Roma but Cannavaro heads clear... still with the Italians though, Mancini on the left back to Aquilani then back to Mancini again but his shot is well wide.
    • 36' But Baptista fires the ball straight into the wall. Disappointing.
    • 36' After much rowing and deliberating the ball is placed and the wall formed.... about 25 yards from goal, slightly to the left, Baptista to take...
    • 34' Free kick to Real on the edge of the box after a foul by De Rossi, for which he is booked...
    • 30' Couple of saucy tackles from both sides in midfield, but no more cards shown as the ref tries to let it flow...
    • 28' Again Aquilani is found in space on the edge of the area, he shows great technique to move the ball onto his right and drill a low shot in but this time it is dragged wide.
    • 26' Doni manages to claim the ball after some head tennis, although appears to have picked up a knock in the process.
    • 25' Free-kick to Real again, central to the left, Guti takes and looking for Baptista again but headed behind for a corner.
    • 21' The free kick is headed clear but the ball drops to Robinho, who takes a touch and lofts it into the box AND BAPTISTA TAKES IT ON THE CHEST AND MUST SCORE BUT HE FIRES OVER! That should have been a goal. He was just put off by Mexes sliding in.
    • 20' Taddei is carded for pushing over Heinze, who fell on that shoulder again.
    • 19' The corner is floated in AND TOTTI WITH THE HEADER but over!
    • 18' Two quite incredible strikes from Aquilani! The first one, from 30 yards, rattles off the angle of post and bar with Casillas totally beaten, while the second - after Totti picked up the loose ball and played him in on the edge of the box - forced a low save from Casillas. Corner.
    • 16' Free-kick to Real on the edge of the Roma box.... Guti stands over it and he touches it to Baptista who rifles in a shot that takes a deflection and palmed behind for a corner by Doni!! First real chance of the match.
    • 15' Totti is forced to dribble all the way back to his own half from the edge of the Real box, but Roma still have it as he looks wide right for Mancini, but the crossfield pass is too heavy and out for a throw.
    • 13' Heinze is the first man to be booked in this clash.
    • 12' Corner to Real on the left and Roma struggle to deal with it! Juan's head finally gets the ball clear, and Gago commits a foul on Totti and the threat subsides.
    • 10' Free-kick to Real on the left... swung high into the area looking for Baptista who goes down and Doni drops it but hacked clear by the Roma defence!
    • 8' Robinho goes wide to Salgado, now the ball is with Diarra who chips it in for Raul but he's shepherded out of it by Juan.
    • 7' Clever corner from Totti plays in TADDEI ON THE EDGE OF THE BOX but he mis-kicks it and the ball bobbles out for a throw.
    • 6' Danger here for Real as Cicinho gets into space on the right to send a cross in for Totti but headed behind for a corner...
    • 4' Good play from Real, one-touch football to get it wide to Heinze, they cut inside now as Baptista tries to feed Raul but Roma clear... still with Real though but Raul loses it and Roma have a throw.
    • 2' Early bit of pressure for Roma, culminating in a long ball in for Taddei which Casillas claims under pressure, team-mate Heinze getting a shoulder knock in the process.
    • 1' Match underway!
    • - Referee: Kyros Vassaras (Greece)
    • - ROMA TEAM: Doni, Cicinho, Juan, Mexes, Tonetto, Aquilani, De Rossi, Taddei, Perrotta, Mancini, Totti; Subs: Bertagnoli, Panucci, Pizarro, Vucinic, Giuly, Ferrari, Brighi
    • - REAL TEAM: Casillas, Salgado, Pepe, Cannavaro, Heinze, Diarra, Gago, Guti, Julio Baptista, Raul, Robinho; Subs: Dudek, Soldado, Marcelo, Drenthe, Higuain, Miguel Torres, Balboa
    • - There are no surproses for Real, although the absence of injured striker Ruud van Nistelrooy is a blow that Raul, Robinho and Julio Baptista will have to absorb.
    • - Roma lead 2-1 from the first leg and opt for the usual 4-5-1 formation with Mancini and Aquilani behind Totti. Ludovic Gluli is on the bench, with Rodrigo Taddei and Simone Perotta ahead of Daniele De Rossi in midfield.
