Darius Olaruthe captain of the FCSB in the game with Fenerbahçereacted immediately after his team drew with the Turks, score 1-1, in the last match of the single Europa League group. 27th place for champion and adventure finale in Europe.
Darius Olaru spoke about the injury he suffered in the second half of the match, in the 66th minute. The captain blames his huge misses during the match, which he attributes to the less good period he is going through.
Darius Olaru, after FCSB – Fenerbahce 1-1: “Unfortunately, we didn't have enough quality up front”
“I hope it's not serious what I felt. A very strong opponent. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough quality up front. I missed many opportunities. I also had two good chances to score. The second, if he caught me in a better time, I say I didn't miss. That's how it is in football.
If I could pick where this qualification was lost, I would say we could have got more in the home game with Young Boys, when we didn't manage well in the first half and ran a lot in the second but couldn't score. And the game in Basel, where I felt that if we made better decisions, we could do more. In Belgrade I felt a better opponent. Young Boys and Basel were under the Red Star.
I don't know what to believe! We are talking about so many restarts… There were periods and periods. I hope it will be a restart, because even after a European match we managed to tie some good results in the championship. We're in a bad mood. With the negative results, even the fans left.
It's normal for them to be upset, but they're also thinking about us. We are all angry. If we knew what we were doing wrong, we would try to solve it faster, but we didn't find the solution”said Darius Olaru in the flash interview from Prima Sport, immediately after the match with Fenerbahce.
