The media from Colombia noticed only one Romanian player, after the training match in Madrid: Andrei Ratiu.

“Despite the advantage on the table, it was a difficult first half for Luis Diaz, who was scored excellently by Andrei Rațiu. Rațiu was the best player of the Romanian national team”wrote Diario As Colombia.

“The Colombian national team went from partying to emotions at the end of the game. Our tricolors ended the European tournament with a victory, 3-2 over Romania, in the friendly played in Madrid. We had a 3-goal advantage, but the errors in the last minutes made the difference narrow.

In the first minute of the second half, Romania managed what it failed to do in the entire half: to send a shot on goal. Moruțan did it, but Vargas had no problems. Moldovan also then saved what would have been a wonderful goal, after a collective action in which Diaz left a mask for the opponents.”, the Colombians also wrote.

Romania ended a streak of 12 consecutive matches without defeat (22-6 goal difference). The last failure was on November 17, 2022, 1-2 with Slovenia, also in a friendly match.

Edi Iordănescu’s national team recorded a draw, 1-1 with Northern Ireland in Bucharest, and a failure, 2-3 with Colombia in Madrid, in its first training matches for EURO 2024 (June 14-July 14), where he will meet the teams Belgium, Slovakia and Ukraine.

For “Tricolori” there are two more preparation games before the final tournament, with Bulgaria (June 4) and Liechtenstein (June 8).
