How this fix?

REGEX:
//REGEX
$match_expression = '/Rt..tt<\/td> <td>(.*)<\/td>/';
preg_match($match_expression,$text,$matches1);
$final =  $matches1[1];       


//THIS WORKING
<tr> <td class="rowhead vtop">RtÅ¡tt</td> <td><img border=0 src="http://somephoto"><br /> <br />INFO INFO INFO</td>
</tr> 


//THIS NOT WORKING
<tr> <td class="rowhead vtop">RtÅ¡tt</td> <td> <br />
IFNO<br />
INFO<br /></td></tr>

Sorry for my poor English
