Marius Șumudică, the coach of the team Rapid București, declared dissatisfied with the condition of the lawn, after the Giulesti dressed with CFR Cluj, score 1-1, in the fourth stage of the Superligi play-off.
In the 90th minute, Tobias Christensen was close to the Victoria's goal for Rapid, but he was not able to defeat Otto Hindrich from an ideal position. The coach of Giulesti blames the quality of the playing surface.
Marius Șumudică: “If the land was a little wet …”
“At this level, pressure intervenes, the quality of the lawn. After Buzău, the worst I played (no-at CFR). I did not understand why they did not water it. I have no explanation. It is the first time this happened.
Neither heating, no game, nor at break. With pits, on my word of honor. All the pits were covered with sand. CFR is a very aggressive team.
I think that if the land was a little wet, that ball … it remained a little back (no – to Christensen, in extensions) and had to take another takeover. It's a big opportunity and you had to mark. I thought he could return from his ankle to the other side, but he was blocked.
Come on, let's look at what he's doing during a match and what he cares about Petrila. On a positional attack, we also build after a lot of passes, look at Christensen, on the departure of Petrila and Petrila, brilliant at Kait.
Something worked, it's not accident. I even worked the day before, analyze, look, “said Marius Șumudică, quoted by Digisport.ro.
Following the result of Monday evening, CFR Cluj stays in the second place in the play-off: it has 34 points, with two fewer than the FCSB leader. On the other side, Rapid is in 6th place, with 28 points.
