Champions League: Mourinho's Real Madrid stage crazy comeback on Roma return

José Mourinho enjoyed a Roma reunion to remember as Real Madrid completed an astonishing comeback by scoring three late goals to claim a 4-3 away win in the Champions League on Wednesday. Marten de Roon gave the hosts a deserved opener before Kylian Mbappé struck back on his 100th Champions League appearance to level the scores at the break.

Two Donyell Malen strikes in the space of six minutes early in the second half seemed to take the game away from the 15-time European champions as Roma ran rampant. But Madrid scored three goals in the final six minutes, all stemming from corners, to turn the game on its head as Carlos Espí, Endrick and the ex-Roma defender Antonio Rüdiger struck at a stunned Stadio Olimpico.

"You could say there were two games in one," Mourinho said. "Roma were better in all aspects early on.

When it was 3-1 everyone probably thought the game was over." Mourinho was a popular figure as he led Roma to the Conference League title and Europa League final during two-and-a-half years in charge. The Portuguese coach was honoured with banners and chants by the home crowd in Roma's first home Champions League match in more than seven years.

Bodø were a cut above the 2024 Champions League runners-up and took the lead through Sjøvold just after the break. Dortmund improved in the final half hour but were unable to strike back, despite a late chance for Felix Nmecha.

"There's nothing we can complain about, we deserved to lose," said the Dortmund coach, Niko Kovac. "We didn't bring enough passion today - that's something Bodø did much better.

They took the lead and after that we woke up, but by then it was too late."

Dortmund join Manchester City, Inter Milan and Sporting as recent big-name scalps on the artificial turf of Bodø's Aspmyra stadium.

Bodø's run to the last 16 last season was underpinned by an excellent record at their 8,200-capacity home, officially the smallest venue in this year's competition.
