The unthinkable happened at the Stadio Olimpico, last night.
AS Roma had to turn around a three-goal deficit following the 4-1 defeat to Barcelona at the Camp Nou. And the Serie A outfit produced an incredible result, beating Lionel Messi and co. 3-0 on the night.
Edin Dzeko, who also netted in the first-leg, opened the scoring in just the sixth minute, giving the hosts a glimmer of hope.
