FCSB gave 0-2 in front of the Swisss at Young Boys Bern, in the second stage of the unique group in the UEFA Europa League. The goals were signed by Joel Monteiro (26 years old), who managed a “double”.
The match started disastrous for the Romanian champion. In the 10th minute, Malcom Edjoa (28 years old) accused muscle problems and had to leave the ground. At that time, FCSB played in numerical inferiority, and Monteiro opened the scoring just before Florin Tanase's entry (30 years old).
In the 36th minute, the same Monteiro scored again, scoring his first goals after 271 days and setting the final score.
At the end of the match, Giorgio Contini (51 years old), the technician of the Young Boys Berna band, spoke about the team's performance, but also about the “help” from Gigi Becali (67 years), the FCSB owner.
Giorgio Contini was satisfied with the evolution of his team and the result: “Maybe the opponents have underestimated us a little”
“I am very happy for the game and the result. I hoped to start the match well, which happened. I dominated the first half and I can only be very pleased.
It is clear that in the first half we should have made the most of the chances and score the third goal. In the second half we expected a reaction of FCSB, we retired in the defensive and focused on the counterattack. It did not always come out perfectly, but it thanks us that we have not received a goal.
I don't know if I prepared the game better than FCSB, but I did everything in the most serious way possible. I knew the qualities of opponents and we would have problems if we let them go into the game. Our players ran, we focused on the game on the flanks and we managed to control the second half.
Perhaps opponents underestimated us a littlebut it was seen that I was in control. ”
The Swiss coach also spoke about the information provided by Gigi Becali: “Yes, I was very well informed”
Contini also commented on the fact that the FCSB owner announced the changes on the day of the match, just a few hours before:
“((he laughs subtly) I have to confirm, yes, I was very well informed. But no, this did not help us; We focused on our own game and we managed to win, ”said the Swiss technician.
Florin Tanase impressed: “He brought quality”
The Swiss coach was impressed by Florin Tanase's evolution: “I do not have to list the players to highlight someone. Yesterday I referred to Tavi Popescu, today Tanase entered the course and brought quality. When all these quality players are simultaneously on the field, FCSB is a hard to counteract team, as it has been seen on the field today.”

However, until then, FCSB will play an important test in the championship against the leader of the Superligi, Craiova University, Sunday at 8:30 pm, on the largest stadium in the country.
