The match between Petrolul Ploiești and FC Argeș ended 2-1caused a major scandal at the end, after a controversial phase in the 86th minute. Sierra's goal was disallowed because referee Radu Petrescu blew his whistle before the ball entered the net, so the phase could no longer be analyzed with the help of VAR.
The first to react vehemently was the president of the Pitesti club, Dani Coman, but the tirade was continued by official Daniel Stanciu, another official of the club.
Daniel Stanciu, angry at the referee: “How do you give a foul, brother?”
Stanciu had an extremely harsh speech to the referee brigade and the CCA management:
“You can't do that, it's beyond all limits. Dani Coman's reaction is normal and I agree with him, as well as with UTA, with Chivulete.
Come on, Vassaras, weren't you friends with Chivulete's father? Then it means that what was said in Greece is true: if you don't suspend Chivulete and you give me Radu Petrescu, with all the cards, to referee in UEFA… Don't you remember the fight with Voința Sibiu and CFR? The assistant didn't move, just stood to one side and didn't even look at the screen. How to foul, brother, when there is no player from Petrolul? This is a scam!”

The FC Argeș official continued his attack on Kyros Vassaras, head of the Central Commission of Referees:
“Vassaras didn't go out with Chivulete… I see, he's friends with his father, and now you're doing the same. Coman's word: play, give the qualifications to whoever you want, let anyone be upset. Write on paper that we want X in the play-offs, take your toys and play,” said Daniel Stanciu at Digi Sport Special.
They deserve to be beaten and trampled on, because they make a mockery of our work! They make fun of us. Let them tell us clearly: you are not allowed in the play-off and that's it, we stop, we play in the play-out and we know a job. But don't make fun of us!
What to see? I see this idiot by Radu Petrescu. Leave it to arbitration. Ready!– Dani Coman, about Radu Petrescu
