Roberto Gotta in Italy

It would be shamefully easy to fit the differing European fortunes of Roma and Milan into the predictable rhetorical categories of, respectively, extreme disappointment and huge elation.

No, that's too easy, and incorrect. Because Roma's collapse at Old Trafford and Milan's triumph at the Allianz Arena were first of all connected, judging from a general reaction overheard among everyday people and fans, by the fact few Italians actually wanted them to go through.
