Lighthouse feels the breeze of the danger of relegation
The lighthouse had a very weak play-out start: white draw with Poli Iași, spectacular failure with FC Botosani, 3-4, and now a new draw, with Unirea Slobozia. Grigoryan opened the scoring at the end of the first part, being ideally assisted by Denis Alibec, then Adnan Aganovic restored equality in the 70th minute and closed the table.
At the Flash-interviews after the match, both Gică Hagi and Denis Alibec discussed on the possibility of the Lighthouse, the 2023 champion, to retrograde this season, saying that it is not impossible for this to happen, being really scared by this scenario.
“It would be time not to think about relegation. This is the reality. We need to start winning matches. We have two draws and a failure, it's not right. Football is unpredictable, you cannot live in the past. It is important to be motivated, to have ambition and motivation to go forward. The football seems easy, but it is not easy. I have to be optimistic, “said Gică Hagi at the end of the game at the Black Sea.
“I have no words. We need to go further and fight to save us from relegation. I produced football, but for nothing, if you don't win. We are in a very bad pass. What to do?! Let's think about the cup and go to “B”? The championship is the first goal ”, confessed Denis Alibec.
