Cluj University, strong momentum in the Super League – rival CFR can take advantage of Farul’s failure

At the time when Ioan Ovidiu Sabau took over the team, the University of Cluj was on the brink.

Since then, the Transylvanians have been practicing attacking, spectacular football and have not been defeated in the championship for 5 stages.

At the end of the win against Farul Konstanz, the Red Caps technician was quite reserved and discussed the one goal that could relax him at the end of the season.

“Good match. I want to congratulate the players, they had the spirit, they thought they could beat Farul.

I didn’t expect that we would have a rhythm, that we would build up on such a field, that we would press high, that we would not let them play, knowing that they have a very well-organized game.

All respect for the way they handled themselves today. So far we are far. The goal is very far from being fulfilled.

We will spend a few days and focus on what we have to do.

I don’t need such titles. A great responsibility rests on my shoulders. I have to save the team. When I see her saved, I will be happy and rest.

I do not know these details, whether the restoration of the lawn will begin. We will discuss with management whether we will play all away games.

I don’t like it, but it’s reality. It was clear what it means to play at home. The team needs that boost. All the players were fantastic.” he said, reports Digi Sport.
