Rarely such a thing! Filipe Coelho waited for the Dinamo players at the mouth of the tunnel » What followed was not seen in Romania!
- U Cluj – Universitatea Craiova is the final of the Romanian Cup. The match will be played on May 13, in Sibiu

VIDEO. Exemplary gesture: Filipe Coelho consoled the Dinamo players, one by one!
Immediately after Telles' decisive goal from the penalty spot, Filipe Coelho went to his counterpart, Zeljko Kopic, to greet and hug him.
Then, the Portuguese coach rejoiced with his players, after which something that is not often seen in our country followed: Coelho went to the entrance of the tunnel leading to the locker room, waited for the sad players of Dinamo, greeted and hugged each one of them, to console them!
The “dogs” footballers, together with the staff, went in front of the Cătălin Hîldan Stadium immediately after the end, to thank the fans for their support, then headed to the locker room.
Dinamo is a very good team and we are a very good team. The referee managed the game very well. It was a beautiful atmosphere. We tried to impose ourselves from the first moment. We had some chances, clearer than them, but we lost our concentration in the important moments of the game. We conceded a goal from the fixed phase, we have to be more careful at these moments. In the end, I think we deserved the qualification, with all due respect to Dinamo.
– Filipe Coelho
