University of Craiova – Rapid. Maximum tension in Bănie, at the match in the 15th stage of the Superliga. Mirel Rădoi (44 years old), the coach of the hosts, was cursed in the second half by Giulești supporters, with the score 1-1.
The rapidists did not forget the red-blue past of the technician, the one who was the target of the suburban chants coming from that sector. Over 1,200 spectators moved Gâlcă's team to Bănie.

Giulești supporters started cursing Radoi in the second half. He heard and reacted immediately.
He turned to the guest gallery, raised his hands and waved ironically to them that “it's OK”.
As time went on, the tension grew higher and higher in Banie. Rădoi had several moments when he lost his composure due to the decisions of the central referee Marcel Bîrsan.
Every uncalled foul and every controversial phase sparked vehement protests from the home bench. The Olten coach was caught several times gesticulating nervously, raising his arms and shouting at the referee and the brigade.
In the 67th minute, Alexandru Pașcanu (27 years old), Rapid's stopper, was injured, which is why Rădoi would have criticized him for taking time. This was not confirmed, as the defender was immediately replaced with Bolgado.

A few minutes later, Lars Kramer (26 years old) scored the 2nd goal for Giulești, the Dutchman's first success in the Super League.
