Emil Săndoi introduced the University of Craiova – Rapid: “It's a special load and they are among the fittest teams in the championship”
“It's a special load and we have to admit that they are among the most fit teams in the championship. I also said that the University of Craiova is the favorite for the title, I see it as the first force in the championship.
At the moment, Costel Gâlcă, who is a very balanced person, I think he managed to bring balance to this club. Rapid was a difficult team to subordinate. From my point of view, Keita is a very important player, there are also Christensen and Dobre. I think that's where the duel will be in today's match.
Craiova is a more effervescent team. I think there will be a fight tonight”, Emil Săndoi said, according to digisport.ro.
The duel between Olteni and Giulești has an important charge in the ranking as well. Craiova University is currently in 3rd place, only 3 points away from Rapid and FC Botoșani, teams tied on points at the top of the ranking.
