Aurel Beldeanu watched the match and was satisfied with the result, but not with the manner in which the Oltenians conceded a goal.
Aurel Beldeanu: “I have never seen such a goal”
The goal phase started from a corner. The Oltenians did not manage to get the ball out of the box. First, Bancu sent to the opponent, the ball reached Paraschiv, who shot into the block. Later, he sent the ball to Grameni, who crossed, and Popescu, Craiova's goalkeeper, rejected it towards Alex Dobre, who restored the tie.

“It's different from game to game. There were games and games, but I'm happy with the result. I liked Screciu, but I conceded a goal… I've never seen anything like this. Not being able to vent? It's something… He wanted to hit harder and sent into the opponent.
The result was fair, there were periods and periods. We are favorites for the title, but tough games await us. Everyone wants to surpass themselves. We don't have to cling to the fact that FCSB didn't enter the play-offs, but that's when you have Becali as a coach.
It's an advantage that it's not FCSB, but I also wanted CFR in the play-out. I'm waiting to see the tour, that's more important. May the footballers be healthy and may Olten's ambition be.
I like Mora the most. He has personality, he knows how to dribble. Baiaram had good moments. Mora is the only one from Romania who knows anything else, the rest just to the left or to the right. I'm sorry that I left, that how they play…”, said Aurel Beldeanu for Gazeta Sporturilor.
