The statements of the two coaches

“It will be quite a difficult game considering that they have changed the coach. They have an experienced coach who knows Romanian football. I didn’t play very well in the last match, I didn’t have the defensive balance of the last matches either.

We have to prove that we had a weaker day with Dinamo and play a good match. We have to prove in every match that we are better, then we can say that we are favourites. We need to step up our game a lot and be more consistent.

The fact that we are in our stadium is important, as are the three points”, said Costel Gâlcă.

“A difficult game will await us. We are facing a good team, who are superior to us at the moment in terms of points. I gained a few more days of training. Little by little, I’m trying to change the mentality, the aggressiveness.

I firmly believe that day by day we will look better and better. We’re going to fight because we’re leaving with a second chance.

I hope to come back with a point or three points, because every point is important for our target to reach the play-offs. Any match is important, whether it’s against the bottom team or the top team, we’ll treat it the same

It’s a derby and I hope it’s a good game. When you are playing to full stadiums, it will definitely give the players a certain mood as well. I am used to such atmospheres. Imagine what it was like in Turkey, where fanaticism runs high.

I hope to convey the same state to the players and not to have any fear because there are still 23 matches to play”, Marius Șumudică also declared.
