The coach revealed that everything started from the moment he started analyzing the match against Turkey. “I got very angry when I started analyzing the match against Turkey, even though 3 days have already passed. And from this state of nervousness I felt sick. I felt like I couldn't breathe normally anymore.
In no way did I suffer a cardiac arrest, because I saw that some people wrote that. There were fibrillations. It happened to me the first time when I was in Brescia. It was very cold outside then and they took me to the hospital. They told me that if I didn't get out of fibrillation on my own, then the next morning they would give me shocks, but in the morning my pulse was back. Then I had this with the fibrillations at the end of last year as well. Now again. I'll do another set of investigations tomorrow.” said Mircea Lucescu for Golazo.
Seeing the goal of the Turks really pissed him off
He confessed that the review of the goal phase of the Turks annoyed him beyond measure: “I made some errors… And in the goal phase, we can't treat it like that… It can't be… That's why I got so angry today. The Turks, after the 60-65 minute, could no longer keep up the pace and then we could surprise them.
Whoever carefully analyzed the match saw that Turkey did not surprise us with anything, absolutely nothing. The situations they had in the first half started from some lost balls by us, in an incredible way. Otherwise, Turkey did not put us in difficulty at all”added the selector.
He would have wanted to go with the national team to Slovakia
Mircea Lucescu confessed that he wanted to leave the hospital to be with the “tricolors” at the record-breaking match against Slovakia on Tuesday. “Where should I go? Who lets me go after all this crap that came out today? I hope the boys can manage without me, although I can't understand the point of such a match and why FIFA decided this way”concluded the 80-year-old selector.
