Roma’s lead over Real Madrid evaporated in a six-minute period as the Spanish giants staged a dramatic comeback to triumph 4-3 in a Champions League away match. Marten de Roon opened the scoring for Roma shortly after the opening whistle, before Kylian Mbappe equalized on his 100th appearance in the competition. However, Donyell Malen capitalized on two superb chances in quick succession, giving Roma a 3-1 advantage.
Real Madrid responded, though, with Carlos Espi, Endrick and Antonio Rudiger scoring in the closing moments to secure a remarkable victory. Roma fans celebrated the return of their Portuguese manager Jose Mourinho, who led them to their first Conference League title and Europa League final in two-and-a-half years. The home crowd welcomed Mourinho to the Stadio Olimpico with banners and chants, as the Italians took the lead early on.
