Unirea Slobozia – Rapid 1-2. Costel Gâlcă, the coach of Giulești, analyzed the victory in the penultimate stage of the regular season in the Superliga. The white-cherries technician declared himself unsatisfied with the performance of his students.
Gâlcă wanted Rapid to score more goals at Slobozia. He was also disturbed that the Giulio team didn't keep the ball more and lived dangerously at the end of the game.
Costel Gâlcă, after Unirea Slobozia – Rapid: “I expected us to hold onto the ball more, to score the third goal and the fourth goal”
“I expected the opposing team to open up more, they didn't, I expected us to hold onto the ball more. They also put pressure on us, we needed to have more possession, time it out more and get to the opposition goal clearly.
We could have scored the third goal, and the fourth. There were two phases when they could score. I lived with tension at the end, when you don't have a comfortable result, when you don't have a game that gives security…
There were crosses that the opponent could take advantage of, we had to be more confident, but Aioani also had a good intervention at the end, when he scored a goal”, said Costel Gâlcă, in a flash interview, on Prima Sport 1.
Costel Gâlcă, about…
…about the match against Craiova, on March 8: “We want to look much better, Craiova is a valuable team, we want to do better in attack and defense”.
…about Christensen's absence with Slobozia: “Christensen has a personal problem. He doesn't have as much free time as he wants. He will come back with us, but I don't know if he will be fit to play. It's something personal.”
…about the absence of those from FCSB in the play-off: “It is important for us what we do, what results we have, I am not interested in other teams”.

At the conference, Costel Gâlcă was asked by GSP reporters about the statement of his friend Basarab Panduru, who said that Rapid is “a small team, with the instinct to get results”.
Galca answered: “We need to have more maturity, to have more balance. If we are a team that wants to be high, we need to manage the moments much better. We know that we are not playing perfectly, in the future I hope to look much better.”
What Basarab Panduru declared, after Slobozia – Rapid
“Rapid lived dangerously at the end of the match. The victory is important, but in the end I didn't like what I saw at all. The Slobozia player woke up there with the ball on his head. He could have taken over, only what he did he shouldn't have done. Then followed the deflected shot, taken by Aioani, after which Aioani's error followed.
Why did Rapid withdraw? Rapid is a small team, why would it be big? How many championships did he win? It doesn't mean he has to give 5 to Slobozia. You have the instinct of a small team, to shoot for the result, not to go and give 5″, declared Panduru, on Prima Sport 1.
