Cengiz Under became the youngest Turkey international to start a Champions League semi-final game against Liverpool at Anfield on Tuesday.

The 20-year-old started in attack for Roma, playing as a forward behind Edin Dzeko.

Under has featured predominantly as a winger this season and it is fair to say the tactical switch backfired on head coach Francesco Di Francesco.

The rising star was starved of service and struggled to make his mark on the game.

The winger did not manage a shot or key pass in a disastrous first half for the Giallorossi.

Roma headed into the half-time break fortunate to have only conceded twice.

Di Francesco decided to take Under off at half-time for Schick.

Under had a frustrating game, his side were poor in general with the midfield duo of De Rossi and Kevin Strootman being completely overrun.

After a decent opening spell the visitors barely had a sniff on goal.

Mohamed Salah was the star of the show scoring twice and providing two assists.

Roma did end up scoring twice after Salah was brought off in the last five minutes to keep themselves in the tie.

Under made Turkish footballing history against the Reds. The Roma wonderkid also became the first Altinordu developed player to play a semi-final game.

The youngster who has seven goals and two assists for Roma this season will be hoping to get another shot at proving himself at the highest level in the return-leg next week.
