Spalletti tried to keep his feet on the ground after his latest success.

"We have to be cautious and keep our heads," he told a news conference. "Too much euphoria is a dangerous thing. After all we also have to concentrate on the league and we have got a tough game coming up at the weekend."

Real Madrid's worst fears were however confirmed on Wednesday and the loss will have major repercussions at a club that measures success in terms of European trophies.

"We didn't have that magic we've shown on other nights," said skipper Raul, whose 61st Champions League goal was to no avail.

"It's a very heavy blow, a really big disappointment because the Champions League was one of our big objectives this season and now we are out of it."

At the back Pepe gave further evidence of poor judgement in picking up two needless bookings, while his fellow defenders struggled to deal with Roma's sharp passing and running off the ball.
