CFR Cluj – U Cluj 3-2. Radu Constantea, the chairman of the away team, commented on the footage from the end, with an angry Cristiano Bergodi punching opposing players in a midfield brawl.
Constantea stated that the coach of U Cluj was provoked by certain people who swore in front of the “students” bench, but the scenes at the end do not honor him.
Radu Constantea: “There were certain swear words towards Bergodi”
“It doesn't do us or them credit. We saw certain discussions between the players. There were certain swear words towards Bergodi. It's clear that there were certain reprehensible words that were directed at our bench.
I don't know what the words were addressed to Bergodi, I know him very well, he is not a person who has such outings. I do not know what were the insults that were addressed to him.
I hope he gets a minimal suspension. I received information that there were people near the two banks who provoked, but I didn't have very good visibility”, said Radu Constantea, on Prima Sport 1.
It is clear that I gave them 3 gifts, they were very big mistakes. We dominated, there were opportunities. It was a beautiful derby, on many occasions, if we were more careful or eliminated these glaring mistakes otherwise it would have been the result. But I congratulate CFR. I think we had more chances, but we started from 0-2. Then the 3rd goal came before the break, when we were in control of the game, there were important moments when we failed to manage the situation. We would need 6 more points for the play-offs and we would still not be sure of qualification.
