Maurizio Sarri criticizes the impassable pitch in Cluj

“The match was unplayable, we found ourselves in a sport similar to football. The area was impassable.

When I hear people talk about UEFA, they talk about respect.

But they do not respect football and the players because they allow matches to be held on these fields. It’s a shame I didn’t win” – Maurizio Sarri on Sky Sport, reports Corriere dello Sport.

The technician spotted Ermal Krasniki from CFR Cluj, tuttomercatoweb.com reports. When asked if Lazio was interested in the player, he replied: “You have to ask the sporting director. He is an interesting player, but I thought he was a bit younger,” News.ro reports.

CFR Cluj lost to Lazio Roma on Thursday night in the Conference League play-offs, ending the second leg with the Italians in a 0-0 draw at the Stadio Dr. Constantin Redulescu. In the tour in Rome a week ago, the score was 1:0 in favor of Lazio.
