Marius Croitoru (44 years old), a coach who faced Shkendija during the time he was at FCU Craiova, saw the first half in FCSB-Shkendija and commented on the GSP Live Studio.
At the break the score was 1-1, after Cisotti opened the scoring, and Latifi equalized for North Macedonians. At this moment, at this score, Shkendija is qualified.
At the goal of Latifi, Marius Croitoru was guilty of David Miculescu.
Marius Croitoru: “He had to know. You are a footballer, you are not allowed to know”
“Yes, we can say, I was a player at FCSB. I think I played at Steaua. That was called. From my point of view I played on this team. I can not be forced to believe anything but my truth. I do not want to give birth to divergences.
They all defended in 6 meters. You have to divide the land when you make the area probably because of this, Miculescu caught outside the gate, that he had to close that space. Bîrligea had to hold the first bar. Miculescu is ricoche. I think if he had the orientation in space and he realized he was outside the gate and he would go out. The big mistake from my point of view is at David Miculescu because he did not orient. He had to know. You are a footballer, you don't want to know.
I don't know if he had time after hitting the ball to cover space. Shkendija did not look like a Liga 2 team in Romania. More than a team from the first league of Romania. I think Crețu will play an important role. They are large spaces and Crețu climbs well.
Tavi Popescu has assumed an important role, even if he is wrong. There you allow yourself to make mistakes. It is important that he has courage, personality. As a coach you want this, “Marius Croitoru told GSP LIVE Special.
