Real Madrid beat Roma 2-0 in their Champions League last-16 first leg at the Stadio Olimpico giving Zinedine Zidane a successful start as its new manager.

Chances to score lacked in the first half of the game but then Real Madrid speeded it up. Portugese star Cristiano Ronaldo who lately faced criticism, arrowed a thunderous shot into the top corner after one decent personal accomplishment(57'), scoring then his 12th goal of the season.

On a few occasions did AS Roma look dangerous. Real Madrid then doubled its lead through young Spanish Jese's goal (86'). This game gives the Madrid Team a valuable asset ahead of the second leg on 8 March.

They were clinical where Roma were wasteful - an away goal for Cristiano Ronaldo! - and take what is surely a decisive win back to the Bernabeu. Unless something very dramatic happens in Spain, Roma’s long wait for another Champions League quarter -final goes on.

In the other Champions League game of the night, German team Wolfsburg beat 2-3 Belgium team La Gantoise.
