Mihai Stoica prefaces Drita – FCSB: “A single question regarding the start team”
“It is a match that would relax us mentally. A qualification would mean a new participation in the main phase of a European competition. We would have the opportunity, last year, to participate in the Europa League.
The concentration is maximum. We are in a terrible recoil. Not necessarily if we talk about the game, but about everything that happens. Everything that comes in last year comes out now, what does not enter the opponents now. But I am convinced that we will overcome this period and return where we recommend. the value.
Players have bonuses. The only ones. Those for European groups. From the point of view of motivation they are not worried. Important players are missing, but I had an important return in the tour, with a team from which several important players were missing.
Yes, Olaru can evolve, I do not know if from the beginning, but his presence is important in the middle of the teammates. Ngezana also returns. Radunovic did not play any tour, but Pantea played very well. The question is whether he will play Pantea or will play Kiki. Otherwise, the team is known. Are all the premises to get a good result and qualify in the Europa League play-off“, Mihai Stoica told Primasport.
I do not know what pressure the fans can put, when there is a stadium with a track. These are alibi. I hope there is no need for alibi at the end.
