Middlesborough: On their way to the final
*Denotes home team
VERDICT:
Record signing Massimo Maccarone sealed another stunning European fightback to send Middlesbrough into the UEFA Cup final.
Steaua Bucharest led 1-0 from the first leg and extended their lead early on through Nicolae Dica and Dorin Goian.
As in the previous round against Basle, Boro were left needing four goals to win but Maccarone's angled drive and Australia's own Mark Viduka's header gave them hope.
Steve McClaren's men will face Spanish side Sevilla in the final in Eindhoven on 10 May - their first European final.
