Reuters
Roma are back in the Champions League for the first time since 2011, and they certainly look like they belong.
Powered by Juan Manuel Iturbe and Gervinho, the Italian side needed only ten minutes to breach the CSKA Moscow defense not once, but twice.
In the sixth minute, the Ivorian set up the Argentine to open the scoring.
Four minutes later, Iturbe returned the favor.
Maicon made it 3-0, and Gervinho added a second goal in the 31st minute to put Roma well on their way to a convincing win.
