AS Roma Predict Record-Breaking Amount Of Births In Approximately Nine Months Time

Remember when Iceland witnessed a record-breaking amount of births, nine months after that historic 2-1 victory at the European Championships against England?

Well, we could see a repeat of that happening in Italy next year after AS Roma scored three times to sink Barcelona in one of the most dramatic Champions League quarter finals of all time.

Club president James Pallotta made a splash, jumping in a local fountain to celebrate.

After one of the biggest results in the club's history, we've got a feeling that the club shop may need to restock on baby clothing.

Even their official Twitter account suggested that they might be selling 'a few of these' in nine months time.

Goals from Edin Dzeko, Daniele De Rossi and Kostas Manolas sent the Stadio Olimpico into meltdown as Eusebio Di Francesco's side secured a pass to the semi's.

Manolas, who scored the winner in the 82nd minute, couldn't contain his emotions after the full-time whistle, breaking down in tears when the club fans began to sing 'Grazie Roma'

He might have netted an own goal at the Nou Camp a week previously, but the Greek defender was the hero. The stadium erupted in pure elation as the defender just sat, sobbing with happiness.

Can AS Roma go on and challenge for the Champions League trophy? It would certainly be one of the biggest upsets in the competitions history.

Let us know in the comments.
