Following our 6-2 triumph against the Serie A last week, the Reds had a solid advantage going into the semi-final return leg in the Italian capital.
However, that did not stop the encounter at Stadio Olimpico from becoming a highly entertaining one. Roma opened the game with the majority of the chances but it was Edinson Cavani who scored the only goal of the first half as United went into the break 1-0 up. After the interval, around the hour mark, quick-fire goals from Edin Dzeko and Bryan Cristante put Roma ahead on the night before our Uruguayan goal machine equalised midway through the second half with an unstoppable header.
