Gigi Becali, happy with the return of Mircea Lucescu to the helm of the national team: “He is a coach, but also a quality man”

The Romanian national team debuted in the League of Nations with a sensational victory in Kosovo, 3-0. It was a special match also in view of the fact that Mircea Lucescu returned to the technical bench after 38 years.

ANY Gigi Becali didn’t miss this moment and watched Romania’s game with all his heart, admitting it’s the first time in many years he’s enjoyed another team’s game so much. As for Mircea Lucescu, the landowner from Pipera believes that he is a great coach but also a quality person.

Mircea Lucescu is a coach, but also a quality person. I watched the game, so how? Of course I watched the game, how could I not? Before I didn’t watch because there were others who participated with FCSB, with Steaua. They participated with others, with Gabi Oprea, who knows? I can’t figure out why I had such joy. For so long, it’s something else. We played football, the ball was with us. They started the first half weaker, but then we had opportunities, the ball was in our possession. You have to have a goalkeeper of that nature, you have to go with the ball from the defense at your feet, that’s how football is. Târnovanu, you don’t have anything to do with him in training, he plays with the ball at his feet. In matches, he gives it to the opponent”, declared Gigi Becali at Fans.

Mircea Lucescu, reaction of a great champion: “We cared about them too”

Romania lived up to expectations in the first match after EURO 2024. Mircea Lucescu lined up a solid starting XI, which showed determination and did not give the ball to the opponents much during the 90 minutes in Pristina.

The selector stated at the end of the match that he wants to bring the team back to the level it had in the past when the tricolors cared about the Brazilians or the English.

I am very happy with the result because it gave me an important breath of air at a difficult time. It is not easy to change a coach who has been successful with another one who comes with other ideas. We have looked after both the Brazilians and the English in the past. We must return to this, to focus on the individual qualities of the Romanians. That means using his mind as well”, said Mircea Lucescu.

Romania will play the second match of the League of Nations at the stadium in Ghencea against Lithuania, on September 9.
