Montenegro opened the scoring in the first half, Marincău equalized in the 63rd minute, and Barbu gave the victory goal in the 90th minute. The Romanian U19 coach also prefaced the duel that follows in the competition groups, with Spain.

Ion Marin had the statement of the evening after Romania U19 – Montenegro U19: “Spain is a team, but they have proven that they are a team too”
“They really played well. There were some positions in which we could complete, to conclude the action with a shot at the gate and they hesitated and they continued to pass on the side.
It was normal to make three changes. To choose some speed players because the fatigue fund that the opponent had accumulated had to be exploited. At least on the two central defenders, they immediately put two fresh peaks that created many problems.
At the break I talked to the boys. To trust them after a good match. We had no reason to argue. At the break you have no time for that. At the break just a few things are corrected.
With Spain I played, we know them. I played last fall here in Bucharest, I played with them in Spain. How to say? Spain has won the European Championship 9 times. It's a team, but they have proven that they are a team too. We will approach the game as we approach them all, that is, to win, “said Ion Marin after the victory of Romania
For Romania U19 follows a duel with Spain U19, Monday from 9:00 pm, on the “Anghel Iordănescu” stadium in Voluntari. The last duel of the “tricolors” in the group is with the similar team in Denmark.
