Roma await quarter-final draw

Roma reach the Europa League quarter-finals for the first time and will learn their opponents in tomorrow’s draw.

The Giallorossi had never made it to this stage of the competition since it was introduced in this format.

They have won their last four UEFA fixtures, something the club had not achieved since five in 1990-91.

The draw for the quarter-finals will be held in Nyon on Friday at 12.00 GMT.

Manchester United, Arsenal, Ajax, Villarreal, Granada, Slavia Prague and Dinamo Zagreb are the other teams in the final eight of the tournament.

Tottenham Hotspur had been one of the favourites, but they crashed out 3-2 on aggregate to Dinamo Zagreb.

Spurs had won the first leg 2-0, lost the second by the same result and fell 3-0 in extra time.
