Atleti boost Roma in CL draw

Roma are a step closer to a better Champions League draw after Atletico Madrid won the Europa League this evening.

Atleti beat Olympique Marseille 3-0 in the Final in Lyon with an Antoine Griezmann brace and late goal from Gabi.

This means the Giallorossi are on the verge of moving up to Pot 2 in the draw for the 2018-19 Champions League group phase.

They are not there yet, so need Real Madrid to defeat Mohamed Salah’s Liverpool in the Champions League Final next week.

After that, either Basel or Benfica must leave the tournament in the preliminary round for Roma to go into Pot 2.
