George Buricea: “Denmark, the best team in the world”
After Romania's 1st match at the final tournament, the 6-goal defeat to Portugal, the national team George Buricea pointed out the importance of eliminating mistakes from the game.
“For 10 minutes we were level with Portugal. Then there were 3 minutes of technical fouls and such a valuable team charges you immediately. They distanced themselves, we ran the whole game to get closer.
It is clear that we have to improve our game. The same mistakes appeared in the warm-up matches. A silly pass, an intercepted pass, easy goals for the opponents. We need to eliminate errors. From that moment, Romania will definitely become a very good team”, he said.
The coach prefaced the duel against the Danish machine:
“From my point of view, the Danes form the best team in the world. We will try to be part of the show, we will give everything we can. We want to enjoy the atmosphere, the handball. Such moments happen very rarely in life.”
For us it is only the second European Championship in 28 years. We are here to give our best. It will be a dream come true to play with a full house against Denmark. It's a dream to meet the best players in the world. We have to enjoy it!
– Daniel Stanciuc, center Romania
