FULL-TIME: FENERBAHCE 1-1 ROMA

The visitors look to pump another ball into the box, but Ederson claims it into his hands. That might have been the last throw of the dice for the visitors...

comment

Roma win another corner down the left, but Rodrigo Mora's cross is headed clear by Lukaku. It's the visitors who are on top right now, but that could soon change...

There will be FOUR minutes of stoppage time. Still time for either side to bag a late winner...

Dybala teases an inviting cross towards Hermoso at the back post, but Skriniar turns it behind. The latter is there again to head away the resulting corner, and Fenerbahce survive...

The second half has been by far more entertaining than the first. Both sides have shown genuine intent in the final third.

Roma make another change as Malen is replaced by De Roon.

OH MY WORD!! FENERBAHCE ARE INCHES AWAY FROM A SECOND!! Mercan takes the resulting free-kick from Cristante's foul on Yuksek, and the former's cross lands perfectly on the head of Ake. He then looks to guide the ball under the crossbar, but instead watches as it rattles the frame of the goal before Roma scramble to clear. So, so close!

86'

Yellow Card

Now Cristante is shown a yellow card for a cynical challenge on Yuksek, who was bursting into space in the Roma half.

84'

Yellow Card

Fenerbahce's Yuksek goes into the referee's book for a reckless challenge on Dybala in the centre circle. That was always going to end in a card.

comment

There's a nervous moment at the back for Roma as Wesley fails to put enough on his pass back to Svilar, who has to rush out to prevent Muldur from stealing ahead and bagging a second for the hosts. Fortunately for Roma, Svilar remained alert to clear, but that was far too close for comfort...

comment

Now it's Roma who are looking most likely to bag a winner. The momentum has really swung back and forth in the second half.

78'

comment

Balerdi is incredibly lucky to avoid a booking for a late challenge on Brown on the halfway line. That was incredibly reckless by the Roma defender.

78'

comment

Fenerbahce substitute Lukaku has scored four goals in his last six appearances against Roma, including the winner in his last home game against them for Napoli in November 2024. Lukaku's strike turned out to be the winner that night...can Lukaku repeat those heroics here?

76'

•

highlight

DYBALA SHOULD DO BETTER! Cristante finds Dybala on the right-hand side, and he immediately sets his sights on the Fenerbahce box. Dybala does brilliantly, too, as he works his way inside the penalty area before launching a timid left-footed shot at goal. Ederson gathers the ball comfortably moments later, and the danger passes...

The result of this one is impossible to predict at the moment. Both sides look threatening.

HOW ARE FENERBAHCE NOT AHEAD?! The hosts are so close to going ahead as Greenwood finds Lukaku in the box. The latter then picks out Oguz Aydin, who fails to make proper contact with the ball, which Svilar palms away. It's superb defending from Rensch, who partly blocks and takes the sting out of Oguz Aydin's effort.

Fenerbahce's Akturkoglu is also replaced by Oguz Aydin.

comment

Roma quickly appeal for another penalty as Kante trips Wesley in and around the penalty area. No foul is given, and replays show contact to have taken place just outside the box anyway. Still, things are starting to flare in this one...

70'

comment

Dybala shapes up to shoot from the resulting free-kick before instead sliding the ball across to Malen in the box. Malen then shoots, only to see two efforts blocked and Fenerbahce survive.

69'

•

VAR

NO PENALTY!! Roma don't have a spot kick after all, as the foul is deemed to have taken place just outside the Fenerbahce box. A lifeline for the hosts....

Yellow Card

Fenerbahce's Akturkoglu is promptly shown a yellow card for his protests to the decision.

ROMA HAVE A PENALTY!! The visitors are handed a golden chance to retake the lead as Akturkoglu bundles Dybala to the floor.

67'

highlight

BETTER FROM ROMA!! The visitors finally string a few passes together around the Fenerbahce box as Soule feeds Malen in the box. The Dutchman then turns brilliantly before shooting with his right, only for the ball to whistle just over the crossbar.

66'

•

comment

Once again, Greenwood is the architect of another Fenerbahce counter as he fizzes a lovely ball out left to Akturkoglu. He then takes a touch before launching a rather tame left-footed effort straight at Svilar, who saves comfortably.

65'

•

comment

Roma have had 61.7% of possession since the break, but they've done nothing with it. Fenerbahce look by far the more dangerous of the two.

63'

highlight

CHANCE FOR GREENWOOD!! Roma are caught napping at the back again as Muriqi nods Ederson's long ball into the feet of Greenwood. He then shrugs off Wesley far too easily in the Roma box before turning and shooting with his left, only to watch the ball nestle in the side-netting. That's another let off...

62'

S

Substitution

Fenerbahce make their first substitution, with Elmaz going off for Mercan.

60'

•

comment

Roma look to have settled in the last couple of minutes and get forward down the left through Wesley. He then crosses into the box, finding the head of Soule in the process, but the latter can't keep his header down and the ball flies over the Fenerbahce crossbar.

59'

•

comment

Play pauses briefly as Brown and Svilar collide just inside the Roma box. There was no malice in it from either man, but the referee wants to take a moment to check that both are okay before allowing play to continue.

57'

•

comment

Roma haven't had a shot since the break. Compare to Fenerbahce, who have already had three in the second half. All momentum is with the home side at the moment.

55'

•

comment

Soule looks to create an opening for the visitors as he crosses from the left, but there's far too much behind the ball, which bobbles behind for a goal-kick.

comment

Roma are hanging on at the moment. Fenerbahce haven't given them a moment to breathe so far in the second half.

Substitution

Roma make their first change, as Pisilli comes on in place of Kone.

52'

•

highlight

FENERBAHCE SHOULD BE AHEAD!! The home side have made a superb start to the second half and should have a second through Muriqi. It's incredible work from Kante initially, who drives from inside his own half all the way to the edge of the Roma penalty area. Kante then finds Muriqi in the box, who shoots with his right but is unable to slide the ball under Svilar, who makes the save. Elmaz then tries his luck from range seconds later, only to blaze the ball over the bar.

Yellow Card

Fenerbahce goalscorer Brown is now booked for a challenge from behind on Dybala. It's a painful one for the Argentinian, who takes a few seconds to reclimb to his feet.

50'

•

comment

Fenerbahce maintain their record of scoring in every competitive game they've played in so far this season. That goal also tees us up for an intriguing second half.

48'

Assist

The pass from Greenwood is perfectly weighted into the path of Brown, who makes no mistake with a cool left-footed finish.

Goal 1-1

THAT'LL DO!! FENERBAHCE ARE LEVEL!! The hosts equalise just three minutes into the second half as Greenwood threads a lovely ball through to Brown in the Roma box. The latter then shows incredible composure to dink the ball over Svilar and into the Roma net. Fenerbahce 1-1 Roma!

48'

•

comment

Fenerbahce didn't have a single shot on target since the 12th minute of the first half. The hosts simply have to improve in attacking areas if they're to claw their way back into this one.

47'

Yellow Card

Roma's Rensch is shown the first yellow card of the match for a challenge on Brown. The decision was a tad harsh, given Rensch got some of the ball.

comment

The players are back out, and the second half is underway in Turkey!

•

comment

Fenerbahce created just 0.16 xG to Roma's 0.3 in the first half. And while neither has exactly looked dazzling so far, the Opta supercomputer is giving the visitors a strong 71.7% chance of victory ahead of the second half. The Fenerbahce win comes in at just 9.1%, while the draw currently sits at 19.3%.

•

half_time summary

Fenerbahce have it all to do at the break as the sides head in with Roma 1-0 up in Turkey. It's been a rather uneventful first half of football, with both sides lacking quality in the final third. Still, Roma managed to edge themselves in front in the 39th minute when Malen found Cristante just outside the home side's box. The latter then took a touch before steering a right-footed shot beyond Ederson to put the visitors in front. Fenerbahce had decent chances earlier in the half, with Elmaz and Akturkoglu testing Svilar in the Roma goal, but that's as good as it got for the hosts on their first Champions League proper outing in 18 years.

HALF-TIME: FENERBAHCE 0-1 ROMA

The in-form Malen has certainly grown into this game as he swivels inside and tries his luck with a right-footed effort. The quality isn't quite there for the Dutchman, though, who drags the ball slightly wide.

42'

highlight

ANOTHER CHANCE FOR THE VISITORS!! Roma could easily have doubled their lead as Mancini gets down the right. The Italian then cuts the ball back into the path of Wesley, who swings a right boot at the ball but can't make contact, and the danger passes.

comment

Roma have now scored in their last four Champions League games. Fenerbahce will have to keep up their own perfect scoring record this season if they're to get anything from this one.

Assist

Malen does superbly well to work his way inside and tee up Cristante, who finishes beautifully with his right foot.

Goal 0-1

CRISTANTEEEE!!! ROMA TAKE THE LEAD!! Finally, a moment of quality as Cristante puts his side ahead in Turkey. It's superb work from Malen, who picks the ball up on the left before driving inside and finding Cristante. He then takes a touch before firing the ball past Ederson and into the bottom left-hand corner with his right foot. Fenerbahce 0-1 Roma!

comment

Neither side has had a shot since the 24th minute. Tough watch for the neutral at the minute...

35'

•

comment

Fenerbahce appeal for a penalty as Muriqi throws himself to the ground under minimal contact from Wesley. There was absolutely nothing in that, and the referee was right to wave the appeal away. Still 0-0 after 35 minutes.

34'

comment

Now Roma do win the first corner of the night as Skriniar nods the ball behind, but Dybala makes a mess of the set-piece, and Fenerbahce survive.

33'

comment

This game still hasn't caught fire as of yet. Fenerbahce looked lively when they created a couple of chances in quick succession earlier in the half, but that's as good as it's got so far.

31'

comment

Roma think they've won the first corner of the evening down the left through Soule, only for VAR to overrule the on-field decision and Fenerbahce are awarded the goal-kick.

29'

•

comment

Right on cue, Malen catches the eye for the first time this evening as he skips into space on the left flank. Yuksek reads Malen's run brilliantly, though, and gets across to snuff out the danger.

28'

•

comment

Malen has been quiet for Roma so far. The Dutchman has made a great start to life in Serie A this season, netting five goals in three matches.

26'

•

comment

There has been an obvious lack of quality in and around the final third from both sides so far. They've both found themselves in decent positions, but their end product has prevented them from capitalising up to this point.

24'

comment

Now Fenerbahce record an effort on goal as Greenwood cuts in from the left and shoots with his right. Greenwood's shot was a wild one, though, and the Englishman slices the ball high into the crowd behind the goal.

23'

comment

Dybala's effort was Roma's first so far this evening. Both sides have shown positive signs when they get forward...

21'

•

highlight

DYBALA SQUANDERS A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY!! The Argentinian comes close to putting his side a goal up as Kone frees Dybala in the penalty area. Dybala then takes a touch before trying to fire the ball beyond Ederson at the near post, but the Fenerbahce goalkeeper palms it away before the hosts clear it. That was a great chance, but the score remains 0-0.

20'

comment

It's now the hosts who have had the majority of the ball since kick-off, with Fenerbahce seeing 50.2% of possession so far.

18'

•

comment

Dybala is certainly one to watch for Roma this evening. The Argentinian has been directly involved in 12 goals in his last 16 starts in the Champions League (11 goals, one assist), although he hadn't appeared in the competition before tonight since March 2022 for Juventus (vs Villarreal).

comment

Despite recording only three final third entries so far (compared to the 13 put up by Roma), Fenerbahce have already had six touches in the visitors' penalty area. Roma are yet to have a single touch in theirs...

14'

comment

Fenerbahce aren't happy as Wesley goes in late on Muldur in the home side's half. That was an incredibly late challenge by the Brazilian, who's perhaps a tad fortunate to avoid a booking.

FENERBAHCE HAVE BURST INTO LIFE ALL OF A SUDDEN!! Despite hardly having a kick across the opening minutes, the hosts test Svilar for the second time in a matter of minutes as Muriqi frees Akturkoglu on the halfway line. The latter then drives down the left before cutting in and shooting with his right, forcing the Roma goalkeeper to push the ball away and out for a throw-in.

11'

highlight

FIRST CHANCE FOR THE HOSTS!! Fenerbahce finally get forward as Greenwood bursts down the right flank. The Englishman manages to drive all the way into the Roma box before cutting the ball back to Elmaz, who then lets fly with a low, driven right-footed effort. Fortunately for the visitors, it's straight at Svilar, who gathers the ball comfortably, but that's better from Fenerbahce.

comment

Roma continue to dominate the ball, but neither side has created anything of note so far.

Mancini is penalised for a foul on Akturkoglu on the halfway line. The resulting free-kick should allow Fenerbahce to progress up the field - they've hardly got out of their own half so far.

The visitors have enjoyed a whopping 71.4% of possession so far. It's been a really impressive start from Roma.

comment

The hosts have scored in all ten competitive matches they've played in since mid-July. Roma have also enjoyed a positive start to the season, though, having won all of their opening three Serie A matches. The Italian club also scored 10 goals during that time.

Roma enjoy an early spell of possession, drawing loud jeers from the home crowd in the process.

Fenerbahce are finally back in the Champions League after an eighteen-year hiatus. Roma have also been absent from Europe's premier club competition for eight seasons, and both will be desperate to make a winning return in this one this evening.

The players are out on the pitch, and kick-off is just moments away!

comment

Fenerbahce and Roma will face each other for the first time here. The Turkish side has lost five of their six games against Italian sides in the Champions League to date (W1), although their one win did come in the most recent one at home (1-0 vs Inter Milan in September 2007). The last Italian team to win away to a Turkish team in this competition was AC Milan in November 2005 (4-0 v Fenerbahce). Since then, none of the last five to play there in the competition have won (D2 L3).

team news

Fenerbahce have made four changes from the Besiktas defeat. Out go Semedo, Guendouzi, Kahveci and Aydin, who are replaced by Muldur, Elmaz, Yuksek and Akturkoglu. Meanwhile, Roma have made three changes from a 2-1 victory over Atalanta on the weekend as Lulli, Franca and Mora make way for Rensch, Wesley and Soule.

comment

Meanwhile, travelling Roma also return after a lengthy Champions League lay-off. The Italian giants last played in the competition back in 2018-19 and have won only one of their opening games in their last six participations (D2, L3). Their only victory during that time was a 5-1 win over CSKA Moscow in 2014-15, though their manager’s recent Champions League record certainly gives plenty of reason for optimism this time around. Gian Piero Gasperini has lost only four of his last 23 Champions League group stage/league phase games (W10, D9), and his Atalanta side lost only one of their eight league phase fixtures in the 2024-25 edition (W4, D3).

•

comment

Hosts Fenerbahce arrive in the Champions League league phase having emerged from the competition’s qualifying rounds unscathed. Last season’s Super Lig runners-up came out on top against Gornik Zabrze, Sturm Graz and finally Lyon to bag a spot in the league phase and set up their first Champions League match since December 2008. Including qualifiers, they have played 154 games in Europe since they last featured in the Champions League (W72, D42, L40). And while Ismail Kartal’s men head into tonight’s game on the back of a 2-1 home defeat to Besiktas at the weekend, Fenerbahce were unbeaten in the four games prior.
