Andrei Dăncuș, 16 years old, was an integralist in Gloria Bistrita – FCSB 1-3duel from group B of the Romanian Cup. In the end, he shared his impressions after his first tenure with the champion team.
In the context of the absences that FCSB is facing in the axis, at the match in Bistrita, against the local second division, a 16-year-old stopper was integral.
Andrei Dăncuș, in his first tenure at FCSB: “What grade would I give myself?”
It is about Andrei Dăncuș, a central defender appreciated by the staff and management of the champion. Here were his words at the end of the game:
“I'm glad I got this opportunity. I hope I have satisfied the world, the staffand get more and more minutes from now on.
All teams are ambitious when they play FCSB, but we had no pressure. I went in confident. I hope to get as many minutes as possible and play well”.
Challenged to self-evaluate, Dăncuș answered, calmly, that “I would give myself an 8. There were small mistakes, but we get over it”.
At the same time, he named his example in terms of central defenders: “He's from the Premier League, Virgil van Dijk.”
For his first match, he played very well. We are very happy for his development.

What Adrian Șut said after Bistrita – FCSB:
I knew it would be a difficult game. The desire is very high to prove, it's normal.
I don't think they were intentional entries. A game was looked for on the border of fair play, I think the referee allowed a rather aggressive game and that was OK.
We wanted to win, our goal is to win the Cup. We need victories to gain confidence, to boost our morale.
We must recover very well. It was a pretty good game, but on a pretty hard pitch. We have to recover very well, we will certainly prepare very well for the match against U Cluj and we want to win, because we need the 3 points.
