End of match

94'

And that is full time! Real made hard work of it but they leave the Eternal City with all three points!
90'

Roma have a couple of corners that they can't score from. FOUR added on.
83'

Roma do not make the most of an opportunity the ball into the box from a free kick out wide. You get the impression it is now or never for the Italians.
77'

Real looking comfortable as they see the game out here.
72'

18 minutes remaining for Roma to salvage something, otherwise they must settle for second place in the group.
68'

Another ball across the box from Kluivert goes begging in front of an open goal.
65'

Benzema sees a strong effort saved.

Goaaaaaal!

de Real Madrid en el 47'

46'

We are back underway!
45'

And that's the half! It was all Roma towards the end. No Goals.
45'

What a miss! Cengiz Under will not want to see this again. He has an open goal, Courtois is stranded, and he hits it over the bar.
38'

Modric sends one wide from range.
34'

Roma really putting the pressure on! Courtois pulls off a find save from Nzonzi before Kolarov lashes one just wide.
32'

Ramos cuts out a cross and Roma have a corner.
30'

Courtois is quick off his line to prevent a quick Roma break.
26'

Kluivert immediately making things happen down the left, firing an effort over the bar.

20'

It should be noted that thanks to Viktoria Plzen's victory over CSKA, both these teams have already secured qualification through to the knockout rounds.
16'

Real Madrid certainly having more of the ball, but neither team is looking particularly threatening.
13'

Not much action in the last five minutes. Bale and Benzema try to pick their way through the defence but it is cut out.
8'

Kolarov is adamant that he should have a penalty, and his case does seem to be a strong one with the ball clearly striking a Madrid hand.
6'

Benzema inches away from a Marcelo cross that he would surely have converted.
4'

A bright opening from both sides, getting the ball into forward areas, but no shots on goal yet.

Start of match

The teams are out on the field and the Champions League anthem rings around the Olimpico.

A big surprise as Isco does not even make the bench for Real Madrid. Llorente into the midfield while Vazquez gets a chance in the front three.

And the home side:

Here is how Real Madrid will line up:

And we have some team news...

Both teams sit on nine points in the group, with qualification all but secured. The only thing left to fight for will likely be first place.
