Adrian Mihalcea after the defeat in Galati: “I hope to show the next stage”
“Very few to say after today's match. We did not show that we have a desire. Like the past stages, our penalty instead of giving us an impulse put us lead in boots. They were much fresher, much more eager to close the game.
If in the first half I moved, in the second I did not reach the gate. We have 4 more matches. Now, we will stand in the hands of the results, but I think the chances are easy, easy. Antoche has not achieved many things today, neither offensive nor defensive.
I hope to show the next stage otherwise. I am related to the next stage because if we do not take three points with Iasi, it's done. The teams win, go to 4-5 points and it is difficult to return in 3 matches. We have only one victory in 13 stages. Statistically we are not fine.
If I had 10 changes I would have done. We were missing a lot. I had a bit of confidence after the last stages, but after seeing what Vijelie passed by us … ”, said the coach of Union Slobozia, according to digisport.ro.
Florin Purece after the duel with Steel Galati: “You say they were Barcelona and we in the last place”
“We are very delayed. We lost all the duels. I actually had no chance today. I couldn't believe it, you say were Barcelona and we last. Hard moments for us and we have to wake up because the match with Iași has become final.
It's final. We are no longer allowed to take wrong steps. We started the play-out well but with this game … we if we lose our aggressiveness and do not play at the limit, we have no chance and today it has been seen.
We started with some fixed phases, it was a start as ok, and after the penalty instead of getting up, playing something else, we collapsed. Krell took us out, gave us another chance, but we didn't have a bit of aggression and I was not at all at home.
I had a good moral, I started the play-out well, but I do not understand why I entered so timid and without aggression. I lost all the duels, I think that was the key to the match. The final with Iasi, only that I think about now, “said Purece at the Flash-intervium after the match.
For the Unirea Slobozia, the penultimate ranked in the Superligi Play-out, follows the duel with Poli Iași scheduled on April 25 from 6:45 pm.
