The star got only one 1-1 at Metalului Buzau, and the result, considered below expectations by fans, triggered a real outbreak of tension.

At the end of the game, Daniel Oprița (44 years old), the “military” technician, had a harsh exchange of words with some of the Stelista supporters.

Oprița: “If we still have to win everywhere, let's put 11 shirts on the field!”

The red-blue technician started by saying that the draw was a fair one and that Metalul Buzău was a solid opponent:

“It was a spectacular game, with chances at both goals. In the end, the point is good.

But in our country, some believe that Steaua must win wherever it appears.

If that's the case, then I put 11 shirts on the field and we win just because the Star is written on them,” said Oprița, visibly irritated.

They attack the fans directly: “They only come to swear. They come to help, not just to talk!”

The coach also revealed details about the conflict with the supporters at the stadium.

“I was cursed in a hall… I learned new swear words, I didn't even know them. But to help, no one helps.

Some believe that if we are called Steaua, we must automatically have a Steaua budget.

Let those who criticize me non-stop come help the club, not just throw words. But they don't want to. Some were ok, they respected us.

Others… that's all they know how to do”, pointed out the technician from Bucharest.

The coach of Stella also had a message for the management: “We talk every year, but solutions do not appear”

Oprița's anger was also directed at the club's bosses, whom he accuses of not putting their shoulder enough to the goal of promotion:

I get angry, I consume myself, but there is no real support. We have been saying for years that we want to promote, but nothing changes.

We have shortages, I take money out of my pocket for one, another.

What do they expect, for solutions to fall from the sky?” he said, according to fanatik.ro.

Stella's position in the ranking

After 14 stages, Steaua is in 3rd place, with 27 points, 9 lengths behind the leader Corvinul Hunedoara.
