Real Madrid traveled to Italy to face Roma in the last 16 of the Champions League. Real, which has won the competition a record 10 times, was without the injured Gareth Bale.

Zinedine Zidane, the Real Madrid manager, played in Italy with Juventus. He was taking charge of his first ever Champions League tie.

Roma's Radja Nainggolan was in the thick of the action during a scrappy first half in which the home side canceled Real out.

Ronaldo endured a frustrating first half with Roma making sure it kept close to the Portuguese star and denying him any space.

Real stepped up the pressure after the interval and Ronaldo broke the deadlock with a stunning drive which took a slight deflection before finding the far corner.

Jese Rodriguez, who entered the action as a substitute, ensured Real went back to Spain with a second away goal with a fine finish four minutes from time.
