UPDATE 21:50 »Atmosphere 10 minutes before Csikszereda – Rapid

The atmosphere ten minutes before the match: the stadium's cherry greeted the supporters of the Rapid with greetings, the rapists in the sector responded with applause. No trace of animosity so far.

In fact, the rapist gallery was not hijacked the Szekler anthem placed at the amplification station before the start of the match. The stadium was broadcast the anthem “Nelkuled” (“Without you”), an emotional piece for the Hungarian community.

UPDATE 21:40 »Viktor Orban will not be present at the stadium at Csikszereda – Rapid

Several locals and reporters from Miercurea Ciuc and the surrounding area stand in front of the official entrance, where the Prime Minister of Hungary should enter, who are currently waiting.

The rumor according to which the politician will come to the match has spread quickly in the community. A child of a few years, who came to the stadium with his parents, asked in Hungarian his father: “Jön Orbán Viktor?”. In translation, “Viktor Orban comes?”

From the information GSP.ro, the politician will not appear at this evening's match.

UPDATE 21:15 »Rapid supporters enter the stadium

An hour before the start of the match, the fast supporters are allowed to enter the stadium. It is no longer the chaos from the match with Dinamo, when access was allowed just 15 minutes before.

Now, the entrance is quiet, and many Giulesti supporters are wearing the tricolor. Problems for those with drums: they could not go through the entrance gates, so they received them up.

UPDATE 21:00 »The first pictures from the lawn level

UPDATE 20:40 »Rapid's bus reached the stadium in Miercurea Ciuc

UPDATE 20:30 » Bocciu is ultra, but he will not enter the match!

Rapid supporters begin to gather in the parking lot of a supermarket located in the immediate vicinity of the stadium.

Liviu Ungurean, Bocciu, the leader of the North lawn (in a gray shirt), is in the middle of the ultras, even if he does not have the right to enter the stadium, his prohibition still in force.

UPDATE 20:00 » “Alert” in Harghita for the confrontation between Csikszereda and Rapid Bucharest

Two hours before the start of the match, the authorities are with their eyes in four and are waiting for the supporters of the Rapid at the entrance to the county, from where they watch over the peace and public order, especially since the Tusvanyos Summer University, from Băile Tușnad, where Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has appeared today.

In comparison, at the match with Dinamo two weeks ago, only a car of law enforcement was present at the entrance to Harghita. Today, the number of concentrated order forces has increased significantly, taking into account the general chaos triggered at Dinamo's visit.

On the day of the match, Viktor Orban appeared at the Băile Tușnad Festival, on which the press has written intensely in the last days. There, the politician offered several interpretable statements:

“We lost the territories, we were taken things, which is why one third of the Hungarians remained outside the borders, and the borders of the state and the Hungarian nation do not coincide“Orban said today, in Băile Tușnad, where Tusvanyos Summer University is held.

Instead, on the streets around the stadium there was quiet, around 8:00 pm. The city does not seem to be connected yet to the match in the third stage of the Superliga, but rather to the festival that animates the community these days.

I dreamed that once and at once I have to play with the big teams. Now, leaving my feelings aside, I have to focus, focus on my team, at Miercurea Ciuc, to make a good match against a team that is very good, with very good techniques.

We have to do our best to make a good match, because, as we said, we play in front of our supporters. We have to forget the last match and give something else for the next match.

– Robert Ilyeș, coach Csikszereda

A very difficult match awaits us at Csikszereda, due to the fact that they have lost score in front of Slobozia and will certainly mobilize. So, from us, first of all we have to have a very good attitude, beyond what we are placing tactically in the field. Our attitude I think will count a lot in this match.

– Costel Gâlcă, fast coach

In the hope that incidents like 2-2 with Dinamo will be avoided (beatings between gendarmes and supporters, later between supporters camps), it is expected that several law enforcement will be mobilized.
