Salma Paralluelo scored the only goal of the game as Barcelona edged Roma 1-0 at the Stadio Olimpico in the quarter-finals of the Women's Champions League.
The 19-year-old curled a left-footed effort from outside the box to beat Camelia Ceasar after 34 minutes.
Barca's breakthrough came after the Roma goalkeeper had frustrated them with a number of fine saves.
Despite pressing for a second, last season's runners-up could not extend their advantage in the second half.
And Roma will no doubt have been left kicking themselves having failed to convert a number of chances in the latter stages to level the tie.
