ROME (Reuters) - AS Roma coach Paulo Fonseca described Thursday's Europa League quarter-final second leg against Ajax Amsterdam as the biggest game of the season and urged his players to remain focused in defence.

The Serie A side, Italy's only remaining representative in European competition, won the first leg 2-1 in the Netherlands to give them a slender advantage ahead of the return game at the Stadio Olimpico.
