Steel – Craiova University 1-0. Mirel Rădoi (44 years old), the coach of the Oltenians, drew the first conclusions at the end of the match on the Danube, at the end of which his team gave up the first match of this season. Rădoi came extremely calm, compared to other matches in which he lived much more intensely, did not argue his players and even explained why it is good that the failure came at this moment.

Craiova had her opportunities on the move from Galati, an aspect on which she insisted and Rădoi at the end of the match, to the flash-interviu, the technician of the Oltenians talking about bad luck.

Craiova has lost the first match of this season in the number 10 round, but it will remain a leader in Superliga, no matter what it will do quickly tomorrow night, with Hermannstadt, Giulesti having only the chance to approach at a point, in the event of a success.

Mirel Rădoi's conclusions after the Galati failure

“I think it was almost impossible not to have a defeat in this championship edition, better to have happened today, we all draw conclusions, maybe it is a cold shower, a match with everything.

We made uninspired decisions, we were stubborn to build in the central area, we also had bad luck. I was wondering if, apart from the goal, the opponent had any more shot on the gate space, I don't remember any opportunity.

Somehow unmerited, but we have to go ahead. (no about the goal phase) The marking has been lost, we know that many corners beat on the first bar, lost the mark and if it could not be empty from the first. Lack of responsibility, it is difficult to solve in the long term, in the short term we try to make them accountable. We have a very large waist and there are problems in that area.

Unfortunately, these are the executions I saw tonight: uninspired and I had bad luck. And in their goal the ball could pass by.

We rushed at times, entered their game of wear and tear, did not master possession, changed the system, but after the 80th minute it seemed a chaos on both sides, to be honest.

I do not think it is the first stage when I was in the first place, I do not think it is pressure, we will see along the way if this thing pulls us down. I will ask the players if I feel anything other than what they felt in 2nd, 3, 4.

Many things are not to be adjusted. I was the team with initiative, the better team. I can't do an analysis after defeat as if it were dramatic. I can't say that or that the players had no attitude. A weak evening, we seemed too confident.

I could not draw conclusions that I lost for a certain reason. I do not think that the lack of Assad was felt, I had many opportunities today, countless. Unfortunately, that's why I say: uninspired decisions. 7 out of 9 kits I did not give them up, although we speak that the completion will be on the goal, “said Mirel Rădoi, after the match, at the show” Digi Sport Special “, from Digi Sport.
