Roma defeats Slovan Bratislava 4-0 in Champions League, clinches first win

Roma advances in the Champions League league phase with three points following their opening loss to Real Madrid; Slovan Bratislava remains winless with a minus-12 goal difference through three matches, reducing their prospects of finishing in the top eight for direct round-of-16 qualification. The match outcome affects both clubs' standings in a format where only the top eight teams advance automatically, with positions 9–24 entering a playoff round. Second-half supporter clashes resulted in police deployment and officer injuries, raising stadium security considerations for future fixtures.
