Romania – Colombia | LIVE TEXT, 21:30. The “Tricolori”, undefeated in the history of confrontations with the representative team from South America

UPDATE 12:00 – Two players, OUT from Romania’s team for the match against Colombia

After 1-1 with Northern Ireland, the Romanian national team concludes the action at the end of March with a “luxury” friendly in the company of Colombia. The two teams have met 3 times so far, and the “Tricolori” are undefeated: two victories (3-1 at WC 1994 and 1-0 at WC 1998) and a draw (friendly, 2006).

Edi Iordănescu’s students had an excellent EURO 2024 qualification campaign. They finished the group in first place, undefeated. In fact, Romania has not lost a match since November 2022, 1-2 with Slovenia (friendly).

Colombia, on the other hand, is in dream form. The South Americans have not known the taste of failure for over 2 years, since February 2022 (0-1 with Argentina). Since then, they have collected 15 wins and 5 draws. Among the “victims” of Nestor Lorenzo’s band are Brazil, Spain and Mexico.

Likely teams:

• Romania: Moldovan – Rațiu, Drăgușin, Burcă, Sorescu – M. Marin, Stanciu, Olaru – Man, Alibec, Mihăilă
• Colombia: Ospina – Arias, Lucumi, Cuesta, Mojica – Rios, Lerma – Arias, Rodriguez, Diaz – Borre

After the dispute with Northern Ireland, there were many discussions due to the starting of Cristi Manea on the left defender position, because the CFR player evolves, as a rule, on the right flank of the defense. Asked at the press conference about this aspect, Edi Iordănescu gave a categorical answer.

“At the risk of upsetting a lot of people, we don’t have as many garnishes as France, England, Spain, Italy, Germany. We don’t have many solutions at the moment. We are limited in terms of value”, said the Romanian coach.
