Adrian Mihalcea, statements after UTA – Lighthouse 2-1: “Let's not get drunk with cold water”
Despite the good start of the season, MIHALCA He wants his students to stay with his feet on the ground. He does not think of the play-off right now, but only about the next match, with Dinamo.
Taking into account the occasions of the two teams, one equal was more correct in Mihalcea's vision.
“It was a spectacular match, with many occasions. After the appearance of the game, an equality result I think would have been more ok. I am very correct with what we saw, they had big opportunities at the end, they dominated us in the second half.
They have quality players, possession on their side, we had that blow, we managed to get over the equalizing goal.
It looks like something scares us, the victories, the fact that we can win. I hope to chain the positive results. We suffer as in other matches, we achieve a remarkable result and continue this series of invincibility.
There are no special things, I stayed after the match to think … the players have quality … I managed to transform them and be much more direct, concerned about the game. I have no other strategy. I told them to enjoy tonight, tomorrow we reappear.
It's nice, one thing done by us, but it's just the beginning of the season. It is not necessary to get drunk with cold water, it is far away any thought of thinking about the play-off.
I think of the match with Dinamo, let's see how much this series will hold us. We have to be extremely concerned and careful after we lose that match, because that moment will come, “said Mihalcea, at the first sport.
We work hard, every player gives his blood for the team. We are like a family in the locker room, I can feel this, this is the most important. From the beginning of the season we are together, the atmosphere is amazing.
We play for fans, and they expect a lot from us and that's why we try to give as much as possible. It is very difficult to say what will follow, we take a match with the match, we try to accumulate points, we focus on each match.
