Benel Nicolice criticized Octavian Popescu after FCSB – Rapid match

Rapid had a great win over FCSB at the National Arena in Bucharest, in a match where the hosts sold over 40,000 tickets.

Jason Papo opened the scoring with a personal pass, and Paul Jakob increased the visitors’ lead after a corner kick.

After the break, Elias Charalambous made several changes to the home team’s 11, but none of the withdrawn players made any impact on the game.

If Ovidiu Popescu was criticized for a big mistake during the first goal, then Benel Nicolice had a negative comment on Octavian Popescu, who lost almost all the goals.

“I went to the match and saw FCSHB players who play only for themselves. Tavi (without Popescu) came out in the second half and lost all the goals. He did not win the duel. And then?” said Nicoliță for Fanatik.

Octavian Popescu broke down in tears at the end of the game.

The FCSB winger has just three goals and two assists in 19 games this season.
