The final whistle from Dinamo – CFR Cluj 0-0 it came bundled with several moods and manifestations: one camp frustrated, the other unchained.
This is because the result confirmed CFR's qualification in the Conference League preliminaries, namely the fact that Dinamo will finish the championship in 4th place and will need to pass the barrier for participation in the European cups.
“Central” Colțescu, enemy number 1
After the final whistle, Dinamo supporters launched a chorus of whistles at Sebastian Colțescu, who no longer allowed the execution of an out by the “dogs” at the end of the game.
Midfielder Eddy Gnahore also protested on this topic, which is why he chose a yellow card.
Daniel Pancu, targeted by racist chants + Joy in the CFR camp
On the other hand, there was much joy among the CFR players, who fell to the ground with the end of the game.
Pancu, in ecstasy, was targeted by racist chants from the spectators on “Arc”: “Gypsies, gypsies”, while dozens of Transylvanian supporters, about 80 in number, were celebrating the qualification in the Conference League preliminaries.
It is certain now that Dinamo will go to the play-off with the play-out team (FCSB / FC Botoșani), and the fans did not disarm, encouraging the players at the end.
In the traditional way, Zeljko Kopic was summoned to salute by the supporters, and the Croatian, despite the visible disappointment, complied, being followed by Florentin Petre, the second of the red-whites.
