The FCSB – Craiova University is scheduled from 8:00 pm on the National Arena. The match will be broadcast in LiveText format on GSP.ro and on TV on First Sport 1 and Digi Sport 1
More in jest, more seriously, he was asked at the conference if the Oltenians received an invitation to the champion's title party, in the context in which Craiova draw with CFR Cluj, last weekend, concluded the calculations in Superliga and sent the title to the Capital.
“(No. You were decisive in winning the championship after you have equal CFR. You received an invitation to the title party) I?! Do I work for FCSB?! I can send me two invitations. I am at Craiova University, I represent Craiova University and only Craiova University. It can be my godfather … or I played there … it has no connection, I am at Craiova University and only at Craiova University, “said Rădoi, at the conference.

“We will face the former, the current and hope that not and not the future champion. Congrats on the title from FCSB. Congratulations and those from CFR Cluj for the Cup. It was a good week for us, which happened at workouts. I hope I learned what mistakes I have made before.
I congratulated the boys for the match with CFR, I prefer with a game of this manner not to win points, except to win in a manner that I cannot train and which I cannot control. I insist on these things. I always prefer these things. Obviously, improving the quality of footballers will also bring results, which will thank the supporters.
I think they will treat seriously, as they did with U Cluj, they were already champions and played with the first topping. I think it is a matter of pride, that at the last match here they almost did not matter. It's normal to take revenge. Possession, occasions, atmosphere, everything was for Craiova University then. They will try to play with the best team and thank their fans.
(No prepare a big holiday, do you want to ruin it?) I do not know what they are preparing, we are mounted to win this match, to strengthen our 3rd place and after see what hopes are for 2nd place.
We have two more stages and we see. The strategy is discussed by the others in the club. After these two stages we will put ourselves at the table and see what will be the strategy for next season.
Realistically speaking, yes, Europe is in danger, whatever can happen and I think I have proven through evolutions that anything can happen. We only think of FCSB, we have to go back with points from Bucharest”, Said Mirel Rădoi, at the press conference preceding the party with FCSB.
We have to draw the necessary conclusions after it happened all this season, not only in the play-off, it would be a big mistake. We with the play-off teams have only one victory in the regular season and that against a CFR team in 10 people. We have to make a synthesis of the whole season. We can have an idea where the points have been won and what we have to build from here before
Realistically speaking, the 3rd place is now for Craiova University. We have two important matches, I hope not to put extra pressure on the boys. I hope to motivate the atmosphere of our stands for what we want in the next season.
I will feel motivated for next season, I hope to feel the players the same, and be happy with the result of the result obtained by the result
