Ciucani took another step towards salvation with the point taken from Sibiu. Csikszereda is in 10th place, with 27 points, and Ilyeș believes that a victory in the last 3 stages would ensure retention in the Superliga without needing a playoff.
The former player from Rapid, in his first season as a coach in League 1, hopes that the decisive victory for the direct rescue will come against FCSB, in the next round, at Miercurea Ciuc.
Robert Ilyeș: “With FCSB we will fill the stadium, I hope we win, show a different face”
“I have to be hard on the players, it's good that we woke up in the second half and balanced the game. I'm satisfied with this point. At the beginning of the championship I didn't believe it, but lately the team has acquired an identity. Only away from home we are not consistent, what we prepared all week is not practiced in the game.
I would like us to play with more energy, with more courage. I wanted us to win the way we caught Hermannstadt now, with problems, with injuries. I have to congratulate the opponents, they gave all their energy, but I also have to congratulate my team. There are 3 games left, we have to win one to make the plan to escape directly.
With FCSB we will fill the stadium, I hope we win, show a different face, it would be a gift for the public to win and ensure our direct salvation, without a barrier”, said Robert Ilyeș, on Prima Sport 1.
