Adrian Mihalcea (49 years old), the coach from UTA Arad, congratulated his players, after his team beat Hermannstadt with a score of 2-1, in the 18th round of the Superliga.
UTA won with emotions in Sibiu, even if they played in numerical superiority from the 18th minute, when Neguț saw the red card. At the end of the game, Adrian Mihalcea had a clear message for the management of the Arada club: expect two or three transfers during the winter mercato period.
Adrian Mihalcea, after Hermannstadt – UTA Arad: “We need as many fit players as possible”
“Three points are important, we needed this win. We got it with the head and I congratulate the boys. That red made it even easier for us, but the joy remains and the three points remain.
We need as many fit players as possible. Let's put it this way, I'm having trouble making the team. We have to accumulate points after all.
I'm interested in accumulating points so that we can finish by the winter quite well. Let's manage two, three moves in the winter, I'm not interested in too many changes.
Things are still unclear, I'm not thinking about the place in the standings, I'm interested in the next match.
Our evolution is a good one, even if we lost against U Cluj, we had a consistent match. I have no way to be angry with the team if they lose and play a good game”, said Adrian Mihalcea, according to digisport.ro.
After the match in Sibiu, UTA ranks 7th, with 25 points. Arădenii hopes to qualify for a play-off spot at the end of the regular season.
