"No doubt, we'll get back to winning ways. "As for tonight, CSKA showed they are very well organised and have really good players."They used their chance, we didn't use ours."Madrid, who drew 0-0 against city rivals Atletico in LaLiga last time out having been outclassed by Sevilla 3-0, travel to Deportivo Alaves on Saturday.</blockquote>
