Ioan Andone (65 years old) was present at the GSP Live Special show and analyzed the match Italy U21 – Romania U21score 1-0, the debut match of Daniel Pancu's team to the European Youth.

Ioan Andone believes that Zoran Mitrov was obliged to mark the phase he escaped in a good position in the final minutes. The extreme of FC Botosani looked the goalkeeper, but sent next to the gate.

Andone believes that the psychological moment of the match was represented by the penalty missed by Louis Munteanu in the extensions of the first part. Overall, he says Pancu's boys moved quite well.

Ioan Andone, after Italy U21 – Romania U21 1-0: “I had this huge, huge opportunity!”

“I had emotions now in the second half, I expected to score a goal. Unfortunately for us, we had this huge, huge opportunity! That of Mitrov. With the side, give that … It is true, a little at an angle, but also a defender if you are and you put the side a little in the gate. There was the only non -synchronization of the defensive line of Italy.

They stayed very well, they fired, they had prolonged possession. I think everything broke at the missed penalty. Otherwise we were talking with an equal in the break, which was worth it. I think you could otherwise ask the team to start with a victory. So, I was happy if we were doing an equal. I call young players, there are emotions. They don't have the coach on the bench, it's a negative thing for the team.

I was a little skeptical before the match, not to receive goals, that the team is too defensive. When there, the team was made up of strength players, you could fight with them, that it was clear that they are strong. I was fine with them.

It is a good generation and Daniel Pancu is a good coach. He had where he chooses, the U21 rule helps a lot, you have solutions. 3-4 players in the team, multiply and there are 30-40 players only in Liga 1 that you can select. We hope that in the future we will have 4-5 holders in the great national from here, ”said Ioan Andone, at GSP Live Special.
