Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou says his side should have killed the game against Roma and walked away with all three points.
The North London club were pegged back by Mats Hummels in the dying minutes and drew 2-2 in the Europa League.
It leaves them outside the automatic places to advance to the next round of the competition, with three games to go.
And as is usually the case, Spurs will rue missed opportunities against their opponents.
Speaking in his post-match press conference, Postecoglou said: “It’s frustrating, particularly when they score so late in the game.
“But it was a good game. We should have put it to bed early and it’s disappointing not to see it through.
“We should have shown a bit more composure. We had a couple of chances cleared off the line. We sort of kept them in the game.
“Hugely frustrating not to see the game out.”

“They are a good side. There is a reason why they are in the Europa League.
“They had a great season last time, but they have had some tough time this year. They had quality players, but we had the chance to win the game.”
Fraser Forster was a standout performer for Spurs as he prepares to take the mantle from the injured Guglielmo Vicario.
Ange praised him and goalscorers Son Heung-Min and Brennan Johnson.
He added: “He did well. We expect that from him. He is a very experienced goalkeeper and he did his part.
“They were okay. We created a lot of chances. We should have been clinical and won the game.”
