Mihai Stoica, before Turkey – Romania: “Ionuț Radu has nothing and will defend”

“I said there is something wrong with the way it turned out. You, the goalkeeper, cannot defend with a muscle injury that does not let you go unsupported after the match is over. He did not get injured in the 90+4th minute. He had problems a few dozen minutes earlier. He has nothing and will defend. It is clear. I think he was scared. Not necessarily that he was victimized. I remember how it was explained to me that he gave Mihăila goal with Switzerland. You can't put your foot in the ground with a break. You can only stay,” said Mihai Stoica on the show Fotbal Show.

When he left the field, it was clear that there was no other solution. Now that it was just a scare… It seems to be running normally. If he had something, I don't think it would have come any more. If something came out of the initial investigations, what would be the point. He got scared. He felt something during the match and…He took it more mentally than physically.

• If Ionuț Radu will not be fit to play in Romania's goal, Mircea Lucescu still has 3: Marian Aioani (Rapid), Cătălin Căbuz (FC Argeș) and Laurențiu Popescu (Universitatea Craiova). For any of the three it would be a debut for the national team.
