Romania Under-21s have lost their first two group games in the finals of the European Championship and will face Croatia in a no-stakes match on Tuesday.

Emil Săndoi wants all the called-up players to mark the minutes

After defeats by Spain (3-0) and Ukraine (1-0), the little tricolors have a chance to leave a good impression at the tournament in Bucharest. At the press conference, selector Emil Sandoi spoke about the atmosphere in the group and the goals of this game.

“In terms of the atmosphere, we cannot say that we are at the highest level, considering that we lost the first two games in this final tournament. We are now in the third match and we have to be aware of that.

A tough match ahead, but also a very, very important one. Even if it’s not a qualifying match. We must play better, possess the ball better, be more in the game. I don’t think there is a worthless opponent in this final tournament.

Croatia is a team in the truest sense of the word, even if it doesn’t have the personalities that Spain or Ukraine have.

We would like all players who have been called up for this final tournament to log their minutes. But we’ll see what happens, we’ll make a decision after today’s training. But regardless of whether you plan any changes in the team, unexpected things can happen during the match and change a certain strategy.” – said Emil Sandoyreports Agerpres.
