Wolfsburg look on the edge of grabbing a second at any time now. Andre Schurrle fires away down the right but his hesitation is final, he takes a touch too much and the chance is gone. Can Gent find a way through? 

Action hero Radja Nainggolan charges forwards for Roma, he doesn't have a lot on, the crowd urge him to shoot so he does. Right into the small of the back of a Real defender. That will leave a mark! Ouch.

Real then break and Cristiano Ronaldo fizzes a wonderful pass to James Rodriguez, who gets a boot to the face.

Zinedine Zidane looked in tense and angry mood as the players came back out on to the Stadio Olimpico pitch. A rocket for Real?

A huddle in the tunnel from the hosts, one away goal down already. They can't afford to ship any more in the following 45 minutes...

Wolfsburg now have former Chelsea man Andre Schurrle on. 

That wasn't the most exciting halves of Champions League football in living memory. Let's kick it up a gear or two please gentlemen!

Mo Salah has threatened a number of times on the counter, getting away down the right, and while each run he has embarked on has shown promise, he's ended up losing the ball at the end. 

The red triangles in the graphic above shows that he has had five dribbles with the ball, and ultimately been unsuccessful in creating a chance or having a shot on each occasion. 

The second crunching tackle of the night from the Real Madrid backline. This time it's Raphael Varane who gets across to smash into Stephan El Shaarawy as the forward was pulling the trigger. The force in that tackle would have put me out of the game forever. 

Lovina Ironkwa: Watching Salah play, I wonder why Mourinho never gave him a chance with all his talents.

Paul Moore:Looks like Roma have reduced their pitch dimensions to Subbuteo size. Squeezed.

Gent have worked their way back into the match and as the average positions for the two teams shows, the hosts (left) have been more attack-minded. Neither team, though, has enough quality in the final third to trouble the defences.

Space and pace for Real Madrid down the right, Dani Carvajal tears off and then gets his head up. Finds Karim Benzema just inside the area, he has Cristiano Ronaldo a step to his left and tees him up, but it's a clumsy pass. Wasn't laid of into the arc and Ronaldo has to readjust, and as a result his left-footed shot is easily blocked.

Gent, on a rare attack, want a spot kick as dangerman Laurent Depoitre spreads his legs and runs at Dante. The big Brazilian just stands his ground and the two collide - nothing doing, and it was outside the area too.

Sergio Ramos with an internal-organ shaker of a challenge, brilliantly timed and clean as you like. I don't think he was ever particularly close to joining Manchester United last summer but he's always been a player I could see bossing the Premier League for somebody. Maybe one day.

The average position map for the two teams shows that Real Madrid are playing much more advanced on the pitch compared to Roma, who appear happy to let the visitors have more of the ball and then attack on the counter.

Karim Benzema (9) is the player furthest forward for Real Madrid, but is perhaps finding himself a little isolated, and outnumbered, towards the left side of the Roma box.

For Roma, Mohamed Salah (11) has been the Italian side's best player.

That's a good effort! Real keep the ball for an extended spell and it ends with left-back Marcelo arcing a looping strike narrowly wide from the edge of the area.
