Rudi Garcia remained upbeat despite seeing Roma squander a late two-goal lead in a dramatic 4-4 Champions League draw with Bayer Leverkusen.

The Italians appeared on course to record their first win in Group E when they held a 4-2 advantage over their hosts with six minutes to play at the BayArena.

Leverkusen had gone 2-0 up inside 19 minutes, only for Roma to get back on level terms before the break thanks to two goals from Daniele De Rossi.
