THE GLOBAL NEW LIGHT OF MYANMAR

ROME — Roma reached the
Champions League quarter-fi-
nals for the first time in 10 years
as Edin Dzeko edged them past
Shakhtar Donetsk 1-0 at the Sta-
dio Olimpico on Tuesday and al-
lowed the Italians to win the tie
on away goals.
The Bosnian striker?s
52nd-minute goal proved enough
after a 2-1 first-leg loss in Ukraine,
with 10-man Shakhtar failing to
find the late strike they needed
after Ivan Ordets was sent off
late on.
Cengiz Under?s goal in the
first leg last month ultimately
proved crucial for Roma, but
Dzeko was the hero on the night
and also proved instrumental in
Shakhtar defender Ordets being
shown a straight red card with 12
minutes left.
That sending-off led to
tensions spilling over, with
Shakhtar?s Facundo Ferreyra
picking up a booking for shoving a
ballboy over an advertising board.
Eusebio Di Francesco?s side
are the second Italian team to ad-
vance to the quarter-finals after
Juventus, with the draw for the
last eight taking place on Friday.
?The standing ovation is not
for me but for everyone, we are
deservedly in the quarter-finals,”
said Dzeko of the applause which
accompanied him off the pitch.
?We managed to do some-
thing Roma hadn?t in 10 years,
so going forward to play against
the best makes us all very proud.
?We are among the eight
best sides in Europe.”
Roma did not concede a goal
at home in the group stage and
hammered Chelsea 3-0 at the Sta
-
dio Olimpico, so the home fans in
the crowd of 47,693 would have
been confident their side could
get the job done.
The Ukrainians dominated
early possession though, and
there was a scare for the hosts
when Alessandro Florenzi nearly
nodded a free-kick into his own
net. Ferreyra then came close
after Federico Fazio lost the ball
just outside his own box, before
Roma struck seven minutes into
the second half.
Kevin Strootman sent Dzeko
through as Shakhtar tried with-
out success to play the offside
trap, and the Bosnian forward
prodded a shot through the legs
of goalkeeper Andriy Pyatov and
into the net for his fourth goal
in the Champions League this
season.
Dzeko was then brought
down by Ordets who got a straight
red card for his troubles, making
Shakhtar?s task that bit harder.
Roma pounce on mistake
?We knew that sooner or lat-
er they would make a mistake
and we?d pounce on it,” said
Roma coach Di Francesco.
?If we face any opponent with
this attitude and determination,
we can go far.”
?Roma made the most of a
single moment,” said Shakhtar
coach Paulo Fonseca.
?Dzeko of course was a key
player, but apart from his goal
they didn?t have a chance, we had
possession. If we had finished off
the chances we had in the first leg
the match would already have
been over.”
Roma held on, and after Ita-
ly?s shock failure to qualify for the
World Cup, their progress to the
last eight along with Juventus is
a boost for the country.
There have not been two
Italian clubs in the quarter-fi-
nals of the Champions League
since 2006/07, when Roma joined
eventual winners AC Milan in the
last eight. There will also be at
least three Italian coaches in the
quarter-finals — Di Francesco,
Massimiliano Allegri of Juventus
and Vincenzo Montella of Sevilla.
Di Francesco added: ?I
spoke with Montella a few days
ago and we said we?d meet in
the final.”
Antonio Conte could make
that four with his Chelsea side
facing Barcelona on Wednes-
day.—AFP
