Ilie Dumitrescu: “Hindrich made a sensational match”

“A solid game on the defensive phase of the CFR. They were surprised by the Lugano. The VAR also matters. He returned to Dan Petrescu now. I liked the way to know how to suffer. There were rare moments when CFR put problems. They entered extensions with a chance. Lugano also had a bar.

And Hindrich made a sensational match. I liked how Sinyan entered. CFR qualified with the hardest opponent. If they played more advanced (no CFR Cluj), the ones from Lugano attacked the spaces very well. They attacked very well. It's a huge victory, “said Ilie Dumitrescu, according to digisport.ro.

Exactly what I said before the match: sacrifice, they all got. The voids canceled, they also gave the bar, we also created our opportunities, but it is clear that we were completely dominated. It's the best team in Europe to play here. I knew from the tour what awaits us.

We organized ourselves in defense. On the changes it was difficult, I could not find defendants or midfielders on the bench due to injuries. I managed an extraordinary victory. I think Lugano in Superliga would not have an opponent, it would be 100 % champion.
