Modest bad atmosphere, as in Clinceni

30 supporters from “units under the tricolor” in the lawn and several hundred spread throughout the stadium. A bleak atmosphere, as in a modest game played in Clinceni.

Italian supporters, only five, Italian journalists, only three. In total, 2,500 people on the stadium, of which about 400 locals from the city hosted the debut match of Romania to this European.

Few spectators, but FRF officials hope that in the duel with Spain there will be more people, considering that they will play in Bratislava, where several Romanians live.

Supporters from Alba, Iași or Bucharest

The Romanian supporters arrived at Trnava at noon. They stormed the terraces in the city, then headed to the stadium.

Those from “Units under the tricolor”, who made chaos in Vienna lit dozens of torches during the match, were the most funny and this time.

Among the Fredonate lyrics being: “I choose to go anywhere in the world with you, to flutter the tricolor to bad and for good!”, But also “Come on, of!”.

With Slovakia will be the full stadium

If at the match with Italy, only 2,500 fans were present at the stadium, on June 17 with Slovakia, the stadium will be Archiplin.

The hosts bought thousands of tickets, as happened at today's game, lost 2-3 with Spain. Where 19,964 fans were present, on the arena with 22,500 available places.

Ion Geolgău, “The hero of Bratislava”

The Romanian supporters present at the stadium dedicated to the 24 matches in the national team's shirt, a special banner, which they flown in the lawn of Romania.

Romania's first qualification for a European championship was a shock for continental football. Mircea Lucescu's students arrived at the tournament in France after finishing in the preliminaries over the world champion, Italy.

The “tricolors” did not laugh at the beginning, but they did not win a match: 1-1 with Spain, the one who would play the final, 1-2 with German RF, the European champion at that time, and 0-1 with Portugal.
