Roma goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny prevented a catastrophe from unfolding at the Stadio Olimpico during Wednesday's Champions League match against BATE Borisov.
Szczesny produced a magnificent save in the 68th minute as BATE striker Mikhail Gordeichuk tried to steal an away goal from close range.
Roma needed a result better or equal to fellow Group E contender Bayer Leverkusen to reach the last 16.
Szczesny allowed that to happen. The match in Rome finished 0-0, while Leverkusen could only tie Barcelona 1-1.
