  • Context: After CFR – U Cluj 3-2, Bergodi jumped on Cordea's neck. According to those from the University, the player from CFR Cluj cursed the coach of the “Red Caps”. After the match, Cordea claimed that the swearing was directed at Dan Nistor, who was near Bergodi.

  • The Italian came up with his version and claimed that Andrei Cordea insulted him very seriously. In any case, he said he didn't want to hit the footballer and just put his hand on the back of his head.

  • Daniel Pancu crushed the Italian at the end of the game and had a xenophobic outing: “I would be arrested if I was abroad and did that, I know very well what I'm talking about! I have no words. Romanians, Romanians… to have a foreigner come to my country to beat my player on the field? There is no such thing!

Daniel Pancu sent a message to Bergodi in Italian: “Cristiano, please forgive me”

A week after the event, Daniel Pancu wrote a message on WhatsApp to Bergodi in Italian, in which he presented his apologies, according to fanatik.ro.

“Cristiano, per favore perdonami, non ho absolumento niente contro di te, ti rispetto molto! Ecco perché pensavo che non rispettasi il nostro paese e la gente di qui! Rispetto ancora l'uomo e l'allenatore Bergodi 🙏🙏🙏”, was the message that Pancu wrote to Bergodi.

Translated into Romanian it sounds like this: “Cristiano, please forgive me. I have absolutely nothing against you, I respect you very much. That's why I thought you didn't respect our country and the people here.

I still respect the man and coach Bergodi. I thought our country and the people here were not respected. I respect the man and coach Cristiano Bergodi,” Pancu wrote to him.

Here is Cristiano Bergodi's answer:

“Daniel va bene non c'è problema eravamo presi dalla tensione della matcha e abbiamo exagerato. Mi fa piacere, per il rapporto di amicizia che abbiamo, che hai scritto mi un messagesa di suse e di peace! Apprezzo di cuore e ti rispetto Daniel come ho semper fatto con tutte le persone quali ho lavorato in questa paese! Ti saluto con affetto! 🙏🙏 🤝”

Translated into Romanian it sounds like this: “Daniel, let's put this problem behind us. We were caught in the tension of the match and we exaggerated. I'm glad, considering our friendship, that you wrote me a message of apology and peace.

I truly appreciate and respect you, Daniel, as I have always done with everyone I have worked with in this country. I greet you warmly”, was Cristiano Bergodi's reply.
