AS Roma knocked Real Madrid out of the Champions League at the Bernabeu on Wednesday to reach the quarter-finals and were joined by Chelsea and Schalke 04.
Roma’s 2-1 win secured a 4-2 aggregate victory while Chelsea thrashed Olympiakos Piraeus 3-0 and Schalke beat Porto 4-1 on penalties following a 1-1 draw over two legs.
The Italians never looked overawed by nine times European champions Madrid. Spanish champions Real, fell behind to a flying Taddei header in the 73rd minute, shortly after having central defender Pepe sent off.
Roma’s passage to the last eight was sealed by an injury time heade by substitute Mirko Vucinic after a Raul goal in the 75th menite had briefly restored Real’s hopes.
Michael Ballack, Frank Lampard and Salomon Kalou settled a one-sided game at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea joined Premier League rivals Arsenal and Manchester United in the last eight.
If Liverpool beat Inter Milan when they visit the Italian Champions with a 2-0 first-leg lead next Tuesday then all four English teams will be through to the quarter-finals.
