“It was an unforgettable evening, I am happy even if things could go even better, I am satisfied,” Milanese told Sky Sport.
“I used to play as an attacking midfielder or support striker, but I can play where the coach wants, I always try to give my best for the team.
“Before the game, the mister kept telling me: ‘You need to play as you know’, and the same did my teammates, they tried to calm me down. I only needed to relax and play.”
Milanese had already played two Europa League games with Roma but the game against CSKA Sofia was his first one as a starter.
