The ''Giallorossi'' finished in eighth place, one of the worst of recent seasons. [[File:Coppa Italia 2008 premiazione.jpg|thumb|[[Francesco Totti]], with the [[2007β08 Coppa Italia]]]] On 9 July 2006, Roma's Francesco Totti, [[Daniele De Rossi]] and [[Simone Perrotta]] were part of the Italy national team which defeated [[France national football team|France]] in the [[2006 FIFA World Cup Final]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/world_cup_2006/4991652.stm|title=Football β World Cup 2006 β Zidane off as Italy win World Cup|date=9 July 2006|access-date=18 February 2017|archive-date=7 March 2012|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120307064326/http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/world_cup_2006/4991652.stm|url-status=live}}</ref> In the ''[[Calciopoli]]'' scandal of 2006, Roma were not one of the teams involved.

In the [[2008β09 UEFA Champions League|2008β09 Champions League]], Roma reached the knockout stage ahead of [[Chelsea F.C.|Chelsea]] in their group, thus finishing for the first time in their history as winners of the group stage. However, they lost to [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal]] in the knockout stage on penalty kicks. After a disappointing start to the [[2009β10 A.S. Roma season|2009β10 season]], [[Claudio Ranieri]] replaced [[Luciano Spalletti]] as head coach. At the time of the switch, Roma lay bottom of the Serie A table after losses to Juventus and [[Genoa C.F.C.|Genoa]]. Despite this setback, Roma went on unbeaten streak of 24 matches in the league β with the last of the 24 being a 2β1 win over rivals Lazio, whereby they came from 1β0 down at half-time to defeat their city rivals after Ranieri substituted both Totti and De Rossi at the interval.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://roma.theoffside.com/team-news/a-tribute-to-claudio-ranieris-coconuts.html |title=A Tribute To Claudio Ranieri's Coconuts β The Offside β AS Roma blog |publisher=Roma.theoffside.com |date=19 April 2010 |access-date=19 February 2012 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120220192623/http://roma.theoffside.com/team-news/a-tribute-to-claudio-ranieris-coconuts.html |archive-date=20 February 2012 }}</ref> The ''Giallorossi'' were on top of the table at one point, before a loss to Sampdoria later in the season. Roma would finish runners-up to Internazionale yet again in both Serie A and the Coppa Italia. During the 2000s, Roma had finally recaptured the ''Scudetto'', two Coppa Italia trophies, and their first two Supercoppa Italiana titles. Other notable contributions to the club's history have included a return to the Champions League quarter-finals (in the [[2006β07 UEFA Champions League|2006β07]] and [[2007β08 UEFA Champions League|2007β08]] editions) since 1984, six runners up positions in the league, four Coppa Italia finals and three Supercoppa finals β marking Roma's greatest ever decade.
