The former great goalkeeper Florin Prunea (57 years old) spoke about the match Craiova – U Cluj, which will be played on Sunday, from 20:30, at the end of which Olten can win the title in the Super League.
Before the match at “Oblemenco”, Florin Prunea said that the greater pressure is on Filipe Coelho's team, and this can represent an advantage for those from U Cluj.
He believes that the Aradelians played better in the second half of the Romanian Cup final, even if the Oltenians won the trophy.
Florin Prunea: “At U Cluj it's a beautiful story, they don't have pressure”
“Filipe Coelho is a coach who brought peace. Craiova is a team reborn from that suffering in Athens.
There was a strong shock. But that showed the strength of the club, in my view. They didn't give in. The signal that came from above, from the first man to the last, was a very clear one.
Then that thing could knock you down. It wasn't like that, on the contrary. They rallied and moved on
But I wouldn't skip the second half of the Cup final, in which U Cluj played better than Craiova. Let's remember Mendy's chance, which, if he scored, could decide the match.
At U Cluj it's a beautiful story, they don't have pressure. No one expected U Cluj to play a championship final. But think what will happen next if it doesn't turn out the way they want. I see a very high pressure, as it was not long ago”, said Florin Prunea, according to digisport.ro.
Craiova is the leader, with 46 points, while U Cluj ranks second, with 45.
