“In football anything can happen and there must always be respect for the Italian clubs, as they are capable of overcoming difficult moments with grit,” Brazilian legend Zico told Roma TV.

Real Madrid won the first leg 2-0 at the Stadio Olimpico in this Round of 16.

“Today Roma need an early goal, especially as in the first leg they tended to get the last pass wrong. They also mustn’t give space to Ronaldo. It’ll be tough, but nothing is impossible in football.”

Cristiano Ronaldo was jeered before kick-off by the fans, having insulted his teammates recently.

“Last season Real Madrid were already criticised by their fans after Schalke and were then eliminated by Juventus. This is why I say that if Roma score early on, it’ll get tough for Real Madrid.

“I really like Mohamed Salah, he can make the difference with his pace.”
