Florin Prunea reacted after AEK – CSU Craiova 3-2: “It happens once every 100 years”
“It started badly the first 10 minutes, but after Craiova it was the team that played. For 80 minutes they controlled the game.
It was as if I was afraid when he gave Badelj to reject the ball. I expected the referee to blow his whistle. They were up to it, they were close to an incredible performance. Craiova had not been there for a very long time. They were in their hands.
I am looking for an explanation though. I'm also thinking about these changes that Coelho made. I found them uninspired.
Cicâldău… the entrance of Mogoș there. It was two against one in the second goal phase. Isenko made mistakes, but he had other big interventions. It's a thing that happens once every 100 years. They controlled the game. You can't lose a qualification like that. They had two chances to make it 3-0″Florin Prunea broadcast live on TV Digi Sport.
The goal scored by Luka Jovic from the penalty in the 90+15th minute meant the elimination of the white-blues from the European competitions this season. The team from Bănie led 2-0, and the Greeks' first goal came in the 65th minute. Vida scored from Răzvan Marin's pass. The 2-2 goal was scored in extra time. After a thoughtless entry by Houri, the “central” showed the spot with the lime, after VAR analysis.
