LONDON (Reuters) - Antonio Conte was in no mood to wax lyrical about the virtues of free-flowing Champions League football after his Chelsea side lost the plot and threw away a two-goal lead before scrambling a 3-3 home draw with AS Roma on Wednesday.

A week in which Liverpool scored seven in Maribor, Spartak Moscow thumped Sevilla 5-1, Leipzig edged a five-goal thriller against Porto and Real Madrid and Tottenham Hotspur went toe to toe in a frantic Bernabeu clash continued with an enthralling Group C game at Stamford Bridge.
