“He has an extra chance” + What he says about the scandal in Italy in which Inter is involved

In Ovidiu Ioanițoaia's view, the University of Craiova is the main favorite for the title, but things can change, considering that there are two matches against U Cluj, in the championship and in the Cup final.

Ovidiu Ioanițoaia: “The University of Craiova is the favorite for the title”

“Craiova has a 3-point lead, it's true, it has the advantage that it will play at home against Cluj University, but that's a double-edged sword. The away team, if it manages a good match, is twice a winner.

Besides, I looked at the schedule. Cluj University, which remains Craiova's main opponent, has 3 home matches out of 4. He has a trip to Craiova, but plays at home with FC Argeș, Rapid and Dinamo. So to speak, the dice are not rolled. Clearly, however, the University of Craiova is the favorite to win the title.

The place occupied in the regular season counts, where Craiova was first. It's worth seeing. She has an extra chance, an asset, but she's still playing. Let's imagine that Cluj University doesn't manage to beat Oblemenco, then things get very complicated.

A difficult match is announced, a “double” between the University of Craiova and the University of Cluj. The team that plays away in these situations, if it takes points, is advantaged because it takes from the opponent directly. It's not yet played, but Craiova, with yesterday's victory, has an extra chance over the opponents.

Argesul is, in my opinion, the great revelation of the season, given the fact that we are talking about a newly promoted team that managed to qualify for the play-offs. It is true that it is the last. Yesterday he played the first half poorly, unconvincingly, timidly. Only in the second half did he recover and cause problems, he pressed, occupied the spaces better, attacked more. All in all, Craiova's victory must be considered deserved.

Argesu will continue to play. Of course, it has no more chances, in my opinion, not even in Europe, because taking the place of one implies the fall of one of the others, and we see Dinamo playing better than Argeșul. Argeș and Rapid are the teams that had a weaker evolution in the play-offs.

It remains to be seen, all the matches are very close. I also noticed yesterday that Craiova University was like CFR Cluj with Dan Petrescu on the bench. He scored a goal in the 10th minute, after which he dominated the first half, had a bar through Teles. He fiercely defended this minimal advantage and managed to keep it until the end. Bancu also declared that they are less interested in the show, not to say that they are not interested at all”, Ovidiu Ioanițoaia opined.

Ovidiu Ioanițoaia: “Metaloglobus was an honorable team”

Ovidiu Ioanițoaia also spoke about the situation of Metaloglobus, the first team relegated from the Superliga.

“Metaloglobus, so to speak, relegated from the moment it promoted. She was always last, I don't think anyone had any illusions, not even her boss, that she would save herself. On the other hand, it was an honorable team, from my point of view, they defended their chances as much as they could. An embittered team, a team that played all away matches, in Clinceni, that did what it could do. He didn't surrender to games. He sometimes had better developments than the score shows.

He also managed some surprises, he beat FCSB, he drew with Craiova. And during Teja's time, and during Bratu's time, as if Metaloglobus played better than the place in the ranking.

From promotion it was known that he would be relegated. The promotion was the big surprise, with Zicu, and the relegation was registered in the natural laws of football, in the conditions in which he paid the salaries he paid. I repeat, it was a team that left a beautiful mark, let's say”, said the GSP director.
