Italy U21 – Romania U21 1-0. Daniel Pancu (47 years old), the coach of “small tricolors”, offered the first reaction after tonight's failure. Extremely sharp at Flash-interview, the suspended coach has given everyone: from players to his own staff!
Pancu It was taken by the fact that his students did not respect what was worked on training in recent weeks, and the goal received was the “stunts of laughter”. He “stung” including his collaborators, due to the fact that his messages from the stands arrived late in Răzvan Rotaru, the “second” that held the place on the edge of the lawn.
Daniel Pancu, unleashed after Italy U21 – Romania U21: “My signal arrived slowly on the bench”
“I am dissatisfied with many things, but here the difference has made their experience. Because you know very well: Italians, pragmatism besides value, we are talking about series players, Premier League.
Individually this problem was never raised. There are some paper calculations, but … there are a few mistakes. The void is the stunts of laughter. We just had to occupy some spaces that we occupy at workouts all the time. We're talking for two weeks.
They had another bar. We give an intensity without intensity, fear, recovery, bar. The second half, another bar in the same way. And we, so shy in many moments … We still have a missed penalty, a huge opportunity … in extensions.
Pancu: “If I was on the bench today, I would never lose this game! We would have won, even!”
One by one, the victory of their value and experience. If I was on the bench today I would never lose this game! We would have won, even!
It is difficult to stay in the stand, very difficult, especially since you are drawn to your attention not to speak, not to raise the tone. But I still have a match, this suspension expires. I'm sorry I couldn't be with the boys. I am almost convinced that we would not have lost today. ”
How did Daniel Pancu commented the penalty missed by Louis Munteanu
“I do not get a missed penalty. They also missed the biggest players in the world. You can miss the port of the gate. It's like a normal failure, it wasn't even a psychological moment.
It was clear that we need more people in the attack. Maybe at fixed stages I had hopes about this aspect. To give you an example of football maturity and experience. Although I transmitted from above, I do not know how my signals arrived on the bench, because today they were very slow. Slow.
Ignat comes out, Matei Elijah enters. It is in the mind of the cock that you can no longer build through Elijah, because he is a left -foot player. The long ball! You have no statistics. EThis ITALIA CHIPA I saw it playing long in 6 matches. I was aggressive in pressing and they realized immediately, and they played long ball. It's very simple!
Those, I don't know how many times I told them, they are ashamed to give the balls in the out! I reject them on the pressure of the opponents. It's the greatest proof of lack of experience. In the 90+1 minute we have a free kick from the middle of the field. QInstead of calling Sava, the ball steals and … that was it. Here the difference was made tonight.
It was the best first 11, without discussion. Players showed up best at training. I think we can beat Spain, just believe. It's important how we recover. We have not played every 3 in 3 days, there will be changes. We will see how much they will be, ”Pancu explained, live on Pro TV.
