It was a complicated evening for the Oltenians. The people from Sarajevo scored twice and had some huge occasions, being blocked either by the guest goalkeeper, isnko, or their own inaccuracy.
The final ratio of the shots was 19-6 in favor of the hosts, 7-3 for quadrated executions. Therefore, the goalkeeper transferred this summer, Pavlo Isenko, had 5 saving interventions, which is why Ilie Dumitrescu considers him the best man of the match.
Ilie Dumitrescu named the man of the match Sarajevo – U Craiova: “Isenko saved the team!”
“There were some problems for another 15-20 minutes from the second, especially on the defensive phase. There were 2-3 situations where Sarajevo could do 3 or 4-0. The goalkeeper, isnko, is the man of the match! There were 3 situations in which he saved the team. Would have been very difficult to manage if they scored and the goal 3.
From a physical point of view, the people from Sarajevo from the 69th minute fell. That goal came too … If we look, they did not make many changes. I saw Rădoi's reaction, Badelj entered very well, because there were problems in Stevanovic.
One thing is certain: slowly, however, the status of this team has been seen. As long as it was physically well, it was super uncomfortable, with quality players, consistent actions, empty situations, executions. This execution of Guliashvili (no – from goal 2) is a top completion.
But we look at Craiova's problems on the defensive phase. I think the problems in the first half were in the middle. Băluță was not on a very good evening, no chairlift. But in the end, an extraordinary result! ”, Is the analysis by Ilie Dumitrescu at Digisport.
