This was exactly why they did not need two teams in the fight for the title of champion, a match with extensions of half an hour in the middle of the week! The consolation would be that, in the next stage of championship, cf. and Craiova They will play with each other and will be as tired.
The first great joy I lived with a club team in Romania was one produced by Craiova University in a quarter of a final. It was 1983, Craiova defeated Kaiserslautern in the “quarters” of the UEFA Cup and became the first Romanian team in the semifinals of a European competition.
Now, a new Craiova University, with a new long goalkeeper, in another quarter, of internal major, but in a confrontation that had his drama. As it does not yet have a European dimension, for the current University of Craiova, the Romanian Cup is the competition in which it has lived the greatest satisfaction.
Silviu Long now like Silviu Lung from '90
But Craiova was not moving this time. Silviu Lung no defeated none of the 5 executions and reminded us that neither his illustrious father was an ace of the strokes from 11 meters. For example, in the world “optima” with Ireland, in '90, no parade.
It seems that Mirel Rădoi, proud and innovative, came up with the bold idea that all the blows be sent up. It was a risky approach and Craiova eventually gave the threshold.
CFR triumphs at the breaks. As 15 years ago, when I had the opportunity to comment on the final won in Iasi against Vaslui at such blows. Dan Petrescu's dream to conquer his first cup of Romania as a coach remains alive. “Bursucul” is the main opponent of Șumudică In the attempt of the Rapid coach to save his season and chair through the Cup.
Craiova has confirmed that it is a solid team in this second term of Rădoi. Baiaram took over the scepter left by King Mitriță, remaining on the bench. Something happens there, to the left of the attack of Craiova, where fabulous goals come during this period, Mitriță in Giulești, Baiaram in Cluj … If you are a real footballer, you send a “ball prison”, as the quick Dobre is expressed, in the winter, after a sublime diagonal.
CFR won a qualification and a player

At CFR, a concrete player was born tonight. Emerllahu gave Nkololo a goal, but not fucked, the assistant to Kamara's goal, sent a dangerous shot, a little beside the gate, and transformed flawlessly to breaking blows. CFR has recovered very well after the drama lived with U Cluj and looks like a team that has a strength for an event.
And Baiaram, and Djokovic, and Bancu said at the end that the match ended with a lottery. It's a nonsense because they also said they were specially prepared, they practiced for that “lottery”. The breaks are also a form of football, for which you train, and tonight those who did not send the ball in the lawn.
Only Dan Petrescu, for the first time the winner at the breaks, spoke about the special quality of this evening. There is no quality in the lottery.
