Meriton Korenica, the footballer from CFR Cluj, reacted immediately after his team defeated the leader Rapid 3-0 in Gruia, in a match of stage #17 of the Superliga.
Meriton Korenica talked about how CFR managed to defeat Rapidul. The footballer from Gruia dedicated the goal to his mother, who came especially to see him play football for the first time in real time. Korenica scored CFR's 3-0 goal in the 77th minute, after Louis Munteanu made a decisive pass to him in the box.
Meriton Korenica dedicated the goal in CFR Cluj – Rapid 3-0 to his mother: “She is usually afraid to watch matches”
“We fought and played together. We won and I hope we don't stop. We have worked hard these weeks and the result has been seen. We are so low in the table, we really had to win and we have to keep collecting victories.
We worked as a team, we played together. We have to help each other, it doesn't matter who scores.
My mother was an extra motivation, it was the first time she came to see me at the stadium here. She is usually afraid to watch live matches, but today I asked her to come and she made an exception. This blank is for my mother.
It's not important that I only scored once. It doesn't matter who scores, the important thing is that we won. We worked as a team, we helped each other and this is the result. I hope we don't stop. It really doesn't matter who the man of the match is.
We continue the fight for the play-offs, we don't want to stop here. I thank my teammates and the coach and I hope we continue the same,” Meriton Korenica said in the flash interview on Digi Sport Special.
