VIDEO. Felicia Pârvu: “Cristina Neagu told us at the age of 12 that she will be the best in the world”
“I was waiting for this moment. When she was about 12, she told us she would be the best player in the world and that a day will come when we are proud of being friends and we know each other. For about 20 years I have been boasting that we are friends. What he said 25 years ago was fulfilled. We are a trio of friends, and Ana Luca, who was in the field.
It was something impressive. I cried. We have been talking about this moment for over 3 years. Has happened. It's hard for me. I followed every advice of her, she is the strongest person I know. Now he needs a break. The handball offered it to it. He needs time for her. After the break, it may be in handball. I told him he had to give further, but after a break.
It was very exciting to be with so many handball players in the field. Especially since I was me, Ana and Cristina, who was 25 years ago in the same team. I was all sitting on a block, two distance.
He followed a dream he knew since he was 12 years old. Since then he knew where he wanted to go. If you offer everything, as she did, you can get where you propose. It's already a model for little girls. Once, our first coach, Mrs. Kovacs, told us that a girl like Cristina is born at 100 years old. I would add a zero, “said Felicia Pârvu.
