This match dramatically came to a close.
The Romans, who had celebrated their victory prematurely, could only swallow this bitter pill.
In a way, Real Madrid, holding two away goals, actually holds the advantage. As long as they do not lose to Rome at home, conceding less than two goals, Real Madrid will advance to the next round on the away goals advantage.
At the post-match press conference, Spalletti addressed the journalists: "No one expected us to play well against Real Madrid, but we turned the score around and were close to winning the match."
"Chen is an outstanding player. I can no longer view him with the eyes of a 16-year-old kid. He can completely adapt to the games at this stage, and his physical confrontations are very impressive."
"In the final moments, his sudden forward run disrupted our defensive rhythm. Many people miss such opportunities, but he seized it. I have nothing more to say about it."
