The technician from Bucharest revealed that his team had numerous personnel problems before the match in Constanța.
“Soare is a debutant goalkeeper, we had big squad problems, three left-footed central defenders who couldn't play. We had to improvise, it wasn't easy, plus the five big absences we had today as players.
We also played with a lot of problems, but I'm glad that the team reacted and we won today.”
