Daniel Bîrligea, 25, the author of a “double” in FCSB – Drita 3-2has hardly found his words after the success in the preliminary round of the Europa League.
Bîrligea scored from the action for 1-2, then from the penalty to bring the victory of his team. After the match, at Flash-interview, he took something to find his words:
“I don't know how to talk, there were a lot of emotions. Two seconds … so.”
Daniel Bîrligea, after FCSB – Drita: “We can scare all the teams, but we only scare ourselves”
“The most important thing was that we won, it doesn't matter how. We needed a victory, to give us moral, to feel we could win, because the last weeks we thought we didn't know how to play football, to win, to give two consecutive passes. It was very difficult.
In the second half we woke up a bit of that hibernation, we entered with more mental training, more aggression and it helped us, because we fought as a team, we must take the second half, look good and take the example, but do even more.
I was very needed for a moment. I think we all tried to do our best to try to change something. I think something has changed but not everything. We need to work on. We have very large potential, we can scare all teams but We are only scared of us at the moment“, Bîrligea said.
Daniel Bîrligea: “It was tension in training”
Unlike Captain Adrian Şutwho insisted that the group remained united, Bîrligea spoke about tensions at the locker room. At the same time, about a relaxation that would have led to this catastrophic beginning of the season.
“I think I was a little relaxed that we were champions, I won the supercussI have made a very nice course in Europe, but they are things from the past. We need to think about the present, to prove another year. It is another year, we must look at ourselves and transfer ourselves to 2025/2026. This year we want to achieve a minimum of what we did last year, if not better. For this we have to fight.
We all brought together, we went out for a dinner to tie. I think that dinner also helped us. At the workouts the tension was seenthings that are normal in a locker room. Maybe those things helped us too, I hope to continue. “
We have to go there (No – on return) with dedication, struggle and determination. So much. If we head there, let's get everything on the ground, we will have no problems. But we have to get there and show that we woke up.
