Ofri Arad's reaction, after his debut at FCSB: “I feel excellent”
“It's an honor to be here and I want to play in the Champions League, that's the goal I also had in Kazakhstan. That's what I told MM too.
I feel good physically, I came off in the 45th minute, but I knew beforehand. I will play more and more, I need to find a rhythm.
But I feel good, there are great players here. I get along better with Birligea and Duarte, but everyone here is friendly.
I had meniscus problems in Kazakhstan, but I can play with pain, no problem. Now I'm restored and I'm going to reach 100%”, said Ofri Arad, after the match, in a flash-interview on the show “Fotbal Club”, from Digi Sport.
In today's football, VAR can steal your happiness very quickly. I'm very happy that I won, that's the most important thing. We keep playing and hope everything is ok.
I felt amazing! Playing at this great club is what I wanted for a long time. I am sure that from match to match, the team will play better and I will be better. I'm great.
We must always believe. I know the percentage is not the best, but we have to focus on the next games. We hope that all will be well and that God will be with us

Darius Olaru's conclusions after the match
An important goal, in a psychological moment, at 2-1, I'm happy, I deserved the victory. An important win for us, we have to keep hoping for victory, but unfortunately we are also playing games. As long as there are chances I think we can reach the play-offs, we give everything in every game.
I'm not thinking about who could get out of the play-offs, I hope, we'll see, maybe we'll be there. There was pressure, until the match with Craiova, it was a decisive match for us, now we have nothing left to do, we have to win them and stay close to the results.
I didn't think we would get here, all in all we were wrong, the team, the staff, everyone, we shouldn't have gotten into this situation, I don't know, I want to believe that we can get to the play-offs. Given that we are also out of the cup, we want to compete in the championship. It's strange to see the arena empty, but we also understand them, with so many problems and results, they also left us.
