PARIS: A rare header by Brazilian superstar Ronaldo sneaked holders Real Madrid into the Champions League quarter-finals as they beat Lokomotiv Moscow 1-0 in their Group C clash and recorded their first victory in the Russian capital in nine visits.
But for a dreadful miss by Lokomotiv's Brazilian midfielder Julio Cesar in the dying minutes, it would have been farewell to the Spanish nine-time European champions and instead Germany's 1997 Champions League winners Borussia Dortmund would have progressed after their 1-0 victory over AC Milan in Milan.
