The Red and Blue captain had a nightmare first half at the National Arena against Craiova University.

The evolution of the player, who was called up by Edi Iordenescu for the match against Andorra and Belarus, was modest.

In the first 45 minutes, Darius Olaru lost a lot of goals, and at halftime, the captain was replaced by Andriy Kordea, players who revived the home team’s attack.

Immediately after the match, Olaru talked about the result, as well as his evolution from the first part of the game.

“We knew it was going to be a tough game, we conceded a very easy goal and ran for the equaliser. I hope he will be better in the next game. It’s frustrating, we wanted to get off to a good start in the playoffs but we couldn’t, but I think we’ll keep looking better and better.

We hope to recover. I blamed it on not feeling well, I had a cold all week and I asked to be changed because I felt I couldn’t help my team. I think we will solve the problems. We all want to take 1st place, let’s see if we can.” Darius Olaru said, Digi Sport reports.
