STOCKHOLM, Oct 10 (Reuters) - AS Roma forward Emilie Haavi cannot wait for another crack at the Women's Champions League after falling at the quarter-final stage last season, as they prepare to face Vorskla in a qualifying clash on Wednesday.
The addition of the Norwegian provided a boost for Roma's attack, and they made last season's Women's Champions League quarter-finals after finishing second in their group behind German powerhouses VfL Wolfsburg.
POSITIVE EXPERIENCE"I think it was a very positive experience last year, the whole Champions League was a little adventure for us.
We had a little bit of luck with the draw, at the same time as we met a good level of opposition,” Haavi explained.
Haavi believes the likes of Roma are getting closer to their European rivals thanks to the games they play against them.
