Mihai Stoica (60 years old), the chairman of the FCSB Board of Directors, criticized Louis Munteanu (22 years old), the captain of the Romanian U21 national, who missed a penalty from the debut from Euro 2025, 0-1 with Italy U21.
Munteanu missed a punishment shot in the extensions of the first half, at the score of 1-0 for the Italians. Thus, the striker from CFR Cluj has a 50% conversion of penalties this season, managing to transform only 4 of the 8 executed.
Meme Stoica harshly criticized Louis Munteanu after the missed penalty: “He doesn't know how to beat, it's not good at all!”
“Louis Munteanu is not an executor from 11 meters. Even though he executed a lot in the current championship edition, he missed a lot. I told you during the match that he had missed 3 penalties. He had a great chance that the ball had rejected and registered.
That is a missed penalty. He doesn't know how to beat a penalty! I, from what I have seen lately, all the performers are very loud next to the bar. Many pick up the ball. They started picking up the ball.
I did not see any missed penalty, if it catches the port of the gate, with the ball up. No goalkeeper can get there to remove the ball. But for this you have to have self -control. It doesn't look like a good penalty performer.
When you beat 7 penalties and miss 3 does not mean you have a good percentage. Missed 3! Forgive me, it's not good at all! Tanase had not missed a penalty all his career and beat about 40“, Said Mihai Stoica, in the studio from the first sport.
However, the statistics contradict Mihai Stoica. Florin Tanase has executed 41 punishment blows throughout his career, managing to mark 39 times.
The two missed, both in FCSB's shirt, occurred in the victory with the University of Craiova in December 2019, score 2-0, and in the “White” draw with FC Botosani, from July 2021.
We could do more tonight. We started a little shy, but afterwards, at the end of the first half, we started playing football. Too bad for that penalty. If I marked, the score was definitely another and I say we could win.
I felt that I could more, it could be more. In many times I looked good. Everyone encouraged me, it happens in bigger houses to miss. I'm really sorry for the boys, but we have nothing to do. We need to take the next match and hope to win.
