The most realistic characterization of the national. “I will be unpleasant, but this is my role”

Romania lost 2-1 with Austria, in the preliminaries CM 2026, but the score did not reflect the difference on the land between the two bands. The tricolors escaped cheaply, for which they were called Viennese mediocre mediocre. The writer Radu Paraschivescu, a good connoisseur of the football phenomenon, has had the courage to get against the general current, who appreciates that the national has left a good impression lately, winning both the qualification group at the final tournament in Germany and on what in the League of Nations.

“I will be unpleasant, this is my role often, and I will make a distinction between evolution and situation. What does that mean? That qualification from 1 to the euro, with all the euro group, was not the result of an evolution, but of a conjuncture.
Evolution means progress, it means playing better or even more to go down. I had that very simple group, we had the results that sang for us, as if they were put by hand and had the conjuncture of Murat Yakin's truffle (no-the Swiss coach at the match with Romania), who took off his stars and made a 2-2 unspoken.
We showed our limits with big teams
If it was 6-0 in the 70th minute, no one was surprised. So it was no evolution. Let us not forget that in that group Israel had a special situation, Belarus had a special situation … The group from Euro came, in the first match continued the situation, this time doubled by evolution.
The match with Ukraine, who was in the war, had football like the escape donkey, no more football was thinking. In the matches with Western teams we showed our limits without any camouflage. 0-2 with Belgium, 0-3 with the Netherlands … And so we get here, at a national, which is the same as then, but with the amendment that we have many players who have more national matches than the club team, which is Anapoda. Drăguș plays more at national.
Club reserves become titles at national
We come to the situation where the Austrian press to say about Romania that It's a mediocre team. And the Austrian press, I'm sorry to see, he's right. Strong and very powerful teams aroused admiration, envy and sometimes fear. The weak and very weak teams arouse mercy, compassion, compassion. Mediocre teams arouse contempt. Indeed, we are mediocre.
When we use reserves from the club teams, and not reserves from Real and Barcelona, but from Cagliari, and we make holders to the national team … When we do not take care of young people … to us, the youngest player from yesterday (no June 7) was 25 years old.
We steal our hat
Does this not put you in your thoughts, football system in Romania? We had a quarter of an hour that gave us some hopes, after which the Austrians started to press and pressed, pressed and pressed, until the goal came. Now, if we always use these alibi, that it was empty after a throw from the edge, that it was a deviation … Yes, it was a deviation.
There were situations in which I was lucky, not bad luck. Now, it was a dose of bad luck. The moment you come and you say I played wellit is not known how we lost, but maybe we do not deserve to lose, when you prevail from a tight score to say that there is hope, it means that you are stealing your hat. You score in the 90+4 minute, after the opponent has a goal canceled with lime.
It was a goal that can change the impression of someone who has not seen the match. Whoever saw it realizes that it was a clear difference, given that Austria is not Spain, England. We have 3 matches, of which a victory with San Marino. The situation is very complicated ”said Radu Paraschivescu, at the Digi Sport Special show.
