Roma chief Baldissoni: Champions League hopes still alive

AS Roma director Mauro Baldissoni says there's no reason to panic after being held by Champions League opponents CSKA Moscow.

Roma were practically through to the knockout round before CSKA's equaliser.

"It's important to have come here playing to win and almost doing so against a strong opponent, as proved by their results against the other teams," Baldissoni told Sky Sport Italia.

Roma will remain in Russia overnight and fly back to Italy tomorrow morning.

"The fact we controlled the game and had so many chances to win is good. Obviously there are regrets that we conceded that late goal."
