Ion Marin (70 years), the national team of the Under 19 of Romania, was extremely disappointed at the end of the match with Spain U19, lost by his students, score 1-3, in the second stage in the group stage at the European Championship hosted by Romania.
He considered that Romania was deprived of receiving a penalty and that the 2-1 goal was unfairly canceled. The final tournament is not implemented at this final tournament, so the phases could not be resumed, and the initial decision remained “standing”.
However, the coach is optimistic and hopes that his students will gather the rows and make a solid match in front of Denmark, which they are forced to defeat, to qualify in the semifinals of the European Championship. The decisive confrontation is Thursday evening, on the “Arc de Triomphe”, from 8:00 pm.
Ion Marin, conclusions immediately after the failure with Spain U19
“I received a goal very quickly, we managed to equalize, I had a valid goal, 11 meters clear, to forgive me, we play against Spain and you are canceled two possibilities to score, it is difficult after …
I met a very good team, finally controlled the game, we also had our chances, we missed them, we fired, in the players, in the goalkeeper. Important is that the team played, I was not more than anything against Spain.
It remains, we want, we do not want to fight for the 2nd place until the last round, with Denmark. That 5-0 does not scare me, Montenegro gave everything with us and were collapsed today. Just as Spain I think will go with them, although it doesn't need it anymore. I notice the whole team, I congratulated them for the effort.
Unfortunately, he was unfortunately injured, shoulder disjunction, he will be missing a few months, an extraordinary effort. They did what I set tactically, in front of the gate could have been a better execution. But let's have in the last match and win.
I changed Băsceanu at the break to have a fresher player, David already had yellow. We were led and had to think about the last match.
If you saw and say that it was 11 meters clear, what to say … this is, “said Ion Marin after the lost match with Spain U19, at Voluntari.
