In front of 15,548 spectators, according to the official figure, Cîrjan was warned in the 59th minute of the game, a card that makes him unavailable in the next stage of the championship. In the Romanian Cup he is not suspended, because the suspension criterion would have been receiving a straight red card.
Cîrjan will still be eligible for the match at home in the Cup, where the red-whites receive the visit of Hermannstadt, a team in which the former captain of the team trained by Kopic, Dennis Politic, plays.
He arrived at Dinamo in July 2024 and quickly established himself in Zeljko Kopic's starting team. He has collected 70 matches in the shirt of the “dogs” so far, during which he managed 12 goals and 7 decisive assists. He has a market share of 2.5 million euros, according to the specialist website Transfermarkt.
Just the other day I was talking in the dressing room and I was saying that this is the most important match so far in this championship. We can climb to the top, and then be on our own until the end. This is how we see things, we see this match as very important. We have to go on the field to win.
