Daniel Oprița, after CSA Steaua – Sepsi 0-2: “The contracts of both the players and the staff are ending”
The technician of the “military” analyzed the game in the flash-interview from Digi Sport and said that the difference was made by the experience and value of the opponent.
“I would have liked more, I don't know if more was possible. In the end I think the more experienced and more valuable team won, even if they didn't have many opportunities, they managed to capitalize on them and capitalize on our mistakes.
I also tried in 10 people, I have nothing to reproach them, they ran, they wanted, that's all they could do. It's a shame that on this day we didn't manage to make happy the supporters who came on this big day, but it's the night of Sevilla's heroes and we have to celebrate them. We are sorry that we were not able to bring about a positive result.”
Asked about the spectacular execution of Alin Techeres, Oprița admitted that he did not realize the importance of the phase at the time.
“I didn't realize it was a really sensational goal, I didn't see it very well, but congratulations. We didn't succeed in the situations we had.”
Daniel Oprița also spoke about promotion
In the end, the Stella coach avoided talking in detail about the club's situation and promotion rights, emphasizing the uncertainty surrounding the club.
“I wouldn't want to talk about this thing, because I don't know it, to say the wrong thing. I wouldn't want to. I have to talk about tonight's game, what I saw in the press. I hope it will be resolved, that this team deserves, these supporters deserve a team in the first league.
I don't want to discuss what happens next. The contracts of the players and the staff are also ending, further we don't know what will happen, if we solve with the promotion right.“
