Harsh accusations by coach Dan Petrescu, after the draw between U. Craiova and CFR Cluj! “My players are on vacation. We will have a discussion”
“A very difficult match, I knew my team would not be good today, so many problems… If before the match you said we would draw, I would have been satisfied, but when you lead 1-0.
It’s a very good team, with an extraordinary bench, look at their CV and how well they entered, at CFR Cluj instead… that made the difference.
I took the goal and immediately fell. Unfortunately, everyone who entered didn’t bring anything extra, maybe Hoban did. We have to settle for a point, that’s how it is in the play-offs. We have to think about the Cup match, it’s in three days, after the match with FCSBin 7 days, maybe those who were at the national team will not perform with Argeș”, declared Dan Petrescu, after the match between Universitatea Craiova and CFR Cluj.
The two teams shared their victories in the regular seasoneach winning 2-0 at home.
