Bauza’s quick goal made the match difficult for Julesti

FC Kraiova 1948 achieved a very important success in the fight for a place in the playoffs and came 3 points closer to the 6th place, which is occupied by Sepsi USK.

Bauza scored the fastest goal of the tournament (42 seconds) and Adrian Mutu believes the goal destabilized his students.

“It was a tough game, a strange night for us, we conceded a goal in the 45th second and it put us ahead. It took us a few minutes to recover. They tried to equalize, attacked, unfortunately, it didn’t work all the time.

It wasn’t our night, there were some players who didn’t have a good night and it showed. Mentally, it changes the game, especially when you fear that you haven’t won against your opponent lately.

Probably if we had managed to score earlier, who knows what the result would have been. They scored against us very quickly, and of course there is a fear of not making a mistake, of receiving the ball, especially in front of our fans, who had a claim to win the match.” Adi Mutu told Digi Sport.
