Favorites Mutu are waiting for a hot match with the leader of the Super League

With 9 wins, a draw and 4 losses, the Rapid team will face a real test on Friday when the current leader in Romania, Farul Constanza, arrives in Giulesti.

Giulesti warmed up for Friday’s match and without emotion won the first group game of the Romanian Cup, beating the second division team CSK Dumbravica (4:1).

“Blestuchi” are counting on the support of the fans, those who have demonstrated this season, and not just that they are with the team regardless of the result.

Gică Hagi and the advantage of being a patron – He does not feel the pressure of results

“We play with the team in the first place. A difficult match awaits us. We are extremely motivated and ready to play this match. We can’t wait for Friday. There is no point in talking about the level of difficulty.

Hagi has been doing very good work for many years. He won trophies, trained many players. He is a very good coach. He has an advantage over all of us. He has such psychological comfort that no coach in the world has. He is the coach and the boss, so there is no pressure on him. The pressure is on me.

We will try to win this match. We are very motivated. We are waiting for people from Farul on Juleshti, let’s see who they are. Now is the derby. We are the first two teams. We want to shorten the distance.

A very difficult match awaits the people of Faruli. Farul will try to control the match but we are Rapid and we want to see if they can,” said the coach of the second-placed team.

Farul, the most prepared team in Romania

Despite only managing a draw in their Romanian Cup group opener against CSM Alexandria, the Constantinians are in their best moment of the season.

The team under the leadership of Gheorghe Hagi has 5 consecutive wins in the championship and only one defeat in the current season – against the University of Craiova (3-4).

However, they will have to face a team that is unbeaten at home, Rapidul have 5 wins and a draw in Giulesti.

The match will be broadcast on Digi Sport 1, Orange Sport and Prima Sport 1 from 20:30.
