ChFR Cluj entered the playoffs of the Conference League, defeating Soligorsk “Shakhtior” (Belarus). After 0:0 in the round, the champion of Romania won in Gruia with a score of 1:0.

Dan Petrescu, disappointed with the fact that the goalscorer Gabriel Debeluch suffered a serious injury

“When you win a match, you should be happy. We played with the champion of Belarus, a very good team, there is no difference between us.

We scored in the first half when we were better. It evened out in the second half. I also had inspiration in the goal.

I have sad news, unfortunately, so I’m a little dusty. In all the matches we won, we had to pay something. We lost the player Gabriel Debelyukh.

From what I understand, he has something with the cruciate ligaments. I think he will be “out” for six months. I can’t be happy.

He is very difficult to replace, he is our best scorer. Especially now, when you can no longer find intruders. Let’s see which players we will return to the attack. We are thin, very thin.

They won today, well done, we are having a good period, but I can’t be happy. I’m upset that we’re going to have a lot of games again and I have to change 10 players, but we don’t really have any players left.

The fact that we lose players is also because we play a lot of matches. Most in Europe. We have 11 matches in a month, and it was visible” – Dan Petrescureports Digisport.

For a place in the groups of the CFR Cluj, they will face Maribor, after the team from Slovenia lost in the third preliminary round of the Europa League (0-3 on aggregate against HIK Helsinki).
