AS ROMA NEWS – The last time Ranieri made it through a knockout round in Europe, preliminaries excluded, was 2004. That was even 21 years ago, writes today’s edition of Corriere della Sera. Chelsea, in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, won 2-1 at Arsenal’s ground later at Stamford Bridge.
Then only disappointments. With Valencia (2005) he went out on penalties against Zenga’s Steaua; with Parma (2007) against Braga; with Juve (2009) against Chelsea; with Roma (2010) against Panathinaikos; with Inter (2012) against Marseille. Counting 2 knockouts and 2 elimination halves, Roma-Shakhtar (2011) and Sevilla-Leicester (2017). (…) But against Porto he won his only European trophy (Intertoto excluded) thanks to a 2-1 defeat of Valencia in the 2004 European Super Cup in Monte Carlo.
