Valencia is reassured against Young Boys, Roma is one and a half in the eighth

Leader of the group G before his meeting against CSKA Moscow, AS Roma could practically ensure his qualification in case of victory in Russian lands. With Dzeko, Kluivert, Pellegrini and Florenzi on offense, the club of the Italian capital won 2-1. After only a few minutes of play, Kostas Manolas was going to be decisive, as often on a set kick. He has risen above the Russian defense to propel the leather at the back of the net, head on this corner kicked by Pellegrini (0-1, 4th). Things got complicated for the locals, with the injury of Mario Fernandes, released on stretcher in the 9th. They were trying to react, but Roma was in place. Florenzi had the ball 2-0 (29th), but the player in the Italian hall was completely lost after this good service Justin Kluivert.

Schennikov had a golden opportunity to equalize (40th), but his head was spinning over the frame. Not always calm after a good start, Roma returned to the locker room with this short advantage … which would quickly fly away. Indeed, after the break, Arnor Sigurdsson would equalize, taking advantage of a mistake by Davide Santon (1-1, 51st). Russian euphoria was going to be short-lived, as Magnusson was sent off after a tackle on Kluivert (56th). In the wake, Lorenzo Pellegrini signed the second goal after a Roman service Cristante (59th). Edin Dzeko then missed the break (62). The Italians had the upper hand in the game, but struggled to bend the game. The score remained there, and the Wolf, with five points ahead of his rival at night two days from the end, is practically qualified for the eighth. In the event of Real Madrid's victory over Plzen, the Muscovites would almost say goodbye to the big-eared cup.

Valencia will hope for a Juventus victory

For its part, Valencia went into a situation a little more complicated for the reception of Young Boys Bern. The Ches still had not won in the Champions League after three days. And Marcelino's men did the job with this 3-1 success. Quickly, the Spaniards would take over. Rodrigo threw Carlos Soler, who, with a nice stung balloon, hit the pole. The ball came back to Santi Mina who had only to push him to the bottom of the nets (1-0, 14th). Assalé had a golden opportunity in the 25th minute, but did not benefit. He was not going to be missed in the 36th, with a relentless cross shot, out of reach for Neto (1-1, 37th). Fear of short duration for the Valencians, since on a love of center of Soler in depth, Mina put the tip of the foot to put his team in front (2-1, 42nd).

A blow to the Swiss, who held the dragée high fourth of the last edition of Liga. Carlos Soler, shining tonight, was going to aggravate the gap by going away to beat the Swiss goalkeeper (3-1, 56th). From then on, the Swiss seemed to have abdicated, and the Ches kept the ball quietly. There was, however, a slight wind of revolt, with a Sanogo particularly active in the last meters, but the expulsion of the latter would definitely kill the hopes of leader of the Swiss championship (77th). The three points in hand, a Valencia badly in point in Liga seized the second position of the group before the Red Devils, who face Juventus in the evening. The Swiss are not yet mathematically eliminated, but it looks complicated …
