Unirea Slobozia – Rapid 1-2. Claudiu Niculescu (49 years old), the technician from Ialomi, reacted after the third consecutive failure. Indeed, Unirea met the top three teams: Dinamo (0-1), Craiova (0-3) and Rapid.
He admitted that it will be strange to meet FCSB in the play-out, but he will adapt to the situation. He is currently thinking about the away game with FC Argeș, the last of the regular season.
Claims that two players will not be able to perform in that match. It is about Esteban Orozco and Patrick Dulcea, legitimized by the future opponent.

“It's normal when you have defeats, especially when you have an opponent like that, not to be very lucid, to be a little bit afraid. Once we got over that fear, I think we managed to give Rapid problems, that's a promising thing for what's to come from now on.
We are now meeting a good team (FC Argeș), but there are still a few days and we have to recover physically and mentally, let's hope that we don't have any injured players, although there are two who I think will not play.
There is a clause and I can't play against Pitesti, Dulcea and Orozco, as far as I know, I hope I'm not wrong. Yes, it was very difficult, but that was the schedule, the target, we can't change that, let's come out of this regular season with our heads up.
That means on Sunday we are convinced that we have done everything that depends on us to get a point, and after that we see how many points we will have and where we will start the play-out, it is another championship where everything will be played.
It will be strange to play FCSB in the play-out. Papeau feels good after the operation, but we miss him a lot,” Claudiu Niculescu said at the press conference.
