LUKAKU STRIKES AGAIN TO GRAB DRAW FOR ROMA
Romelu Lukaku’s second-half equaliser ensured that AS Roma escaped Rotterdam with a hard-earned 1-1 draw ahead of next week’s second leg against Feyenoord in Rome.
Last year’s beaten finalists are among the favourites for the competition this time around, but Daniele de Rossi’s side were given a stern test amidst a fervent De Kuip atmosphere in this Europa League knockout play-off tie.
Feyenoord through everything at the Italian visitors in a breathless first-half that saw chances come at both ends, with the hosts taking the lead on the cusp of half-time thanks to an excellent header from Igor Paixao.
The Dutch hosts deserved their lead on the balance of play, but Roma tightened up after the break and grabbed the equaliser off the shoulder of Lukaku to deny Feyenoord the home-leg advantage that they strained so hard to acquire.
The hosts enjoyed a sustained spell of pressure late on and hit the post in the final moments of the game, but will head to Italy knowing that they need a famous result in order to make it into the round-of-16.

FULL-TIME: HONOURS EVEN AFTER THE FIRST LEG
The final whistle goes and Roma have held on to take the tie back to Italy with the scores level at 1-1. It was a thrilling match and the return fixture promises to be one you won’t want to miss.
90+6'
ALL HANDS ON DECK
Feyenoord are probing and pushing for a shooting opportunity, but there are so many Roma players back that there just isn’t any space. There’s one minute remaining, can the hosts find the goal they crave?
90+3'
ROMA CAMPED IN THEIR HALF
The visitors are defending in banks to try and hold on for what would be a valuable away draw, but the waves of attacks keep coming. A long punt forward is chased by Lukaku, but he brings it down with his hand, and so back come the home side.

ADDED TIME
The officials have added seven minutes on at the end of this game, which is probably a fair amount given some of Roma’s antics. Can Feyenoord pick up the home win that they are probably going to need to make it through in the second leg?

OFF THE POST!
Feyenoord throw bodies into the box for a free-kick from a wide angle, and Svilar is so concerned about coming out for the cross that he is very nearly caught out by a brilliant opportunistic effort from Ivanusec, who goes for goal and cracks the near post with the keeper well beaten.

FEYENOORD GO CLOSE
Gimenez lets fly from a wide angle and stings the palms of Svilar. The home crowd roar their side on in search of a late winner to give them the edge at the midway point of the tie.

YELLOW CARD
Lingr nabs the ball off Dybala and as he looks to twist into space is clattered by Bove, who left one on the Feyenoord man. It’s a booking and that rules him out of the second leg too.

CRAMP FOR THE KEEPER?
The Roma goalkeeper is down with what could be an injury but may be cramp, which you don’t see very often with a keeper. The referee points to his watch, indicating that he’s going to make sure to add this time on.
It’s a lengthy stoppage and the home fans whistle their disapproval.

BOOS FROM THE HOME CROWD
Roma have a couple of players down after clearing a crossed free-kick and it’s a lengthy delay as the medics come on. The home fans are furious. They think Roma are timewasting, and they are probably right.

A TETCHY EDGE TO THE GAME
Both teams know how important the final 20 minutes of this game are in terms of setting the tie up, and it’s getting a little bit niggly out there.

ANOTHER CHANGE FOR FEYENOORD
Stengs is withdrawn moments after that booking as Feyenoord look to introduce some fresh legs and get control back in this game. This home leg was always going to be their best chance so the Dutch side will want a lead heading into the second leg.
