Tony da Silva, sparkling speech after Hermannstadt

Poli Iasi won a crucial victory in the fight to avoid relegation, 1-0 on Hermannstadt’s field, and the Moldovans climbed to 14th place, with 24 points after eight play-out stages.

At the end of the game, Tony da Silva, the coach of Poli Iași, apologized for the repeated time-outs that his players used in the last minutes of the game.

The French technician asked the Iasi supporters to fill the Copou arena for the match with Petrolul, which can ensure the Moldovans’ salvation from relegation.

What Tony da Silva said after the success with Hermannstadt

“It’s just the boys’ victory. The players played with heart, with quality. We need points, it’s not nice that we took time and I don’t like it, but from time to time we have to be a little trickier.

I haven’t been able to change things much since I came. I said he will fight until the last whistle.

We need the support of the fans for the last match. We must go forward and fight to the end.

(no about the game with Petrol) Each match has its own history. At the moment, we are only thinking about getting to Iasi safely, because it is a very tiring road. We have to recover by Sunday.

This city and this club deserve to be in the Super League”, said Tony da Silva, after Hermannstadt – Poli Iasi 0-1.
