Tony Da Silva, unhappy with the game of Poli Iași in the match with U. Cluj

The only goal of the game was scored in the 55th minute. Daniel Popa escaped alone with the goalkeeper Silviu Lung Junior and beat him with a beautiful execution. It’s just that his success needed “approval” from the VAR room, where it was debated for almost two minutes, before the “central” Szabolcs Kovacs was told that it was not an offside position and that he had to validate the success. For Cluj University, it was the second success in this play-out.

The coach of Poli Iasi was angry at the end of the game. He explained what the strategy was and admitted that his team didn’t play great. But he says that a draw would have been fairer.

“I didn’t like our game! I think it was a match that was decided by the little details. There are some things that we have to analyze because some things we didn’t know because we didn’t have time.

We tried to play even more offensively, with three central defenders, and at the end we also made a change, to play more directly, because there was no time. I think it was a fair match, because it was very balanced.

They have more expensive players and a bigger budget, but that’s no excuse. I take on everything, I don’t run away. There are three finals to go, but I felt we were a bit tired. As last game we weren’t the best, now we weren’t the worst. We want to save this club!”, said Tony Da Silva, coach of Poli Iasi.

What displeased Tony da Silva at the refereeing of the match

Tony da Silva reproached the referees for not treating the phase at the end of the game more carefully. The Moldovans asked for a kick from 11 meters, but the referee only awarded a kick from the corner of the field.

“But I say that Poli Iasi is not a respected club. I accept everything and I will never talk about arbitration. In the last phase, he had to check it with the VAR, put everyone at ease! The refereeing was very good, but he should have looked at the VAR.

We have three games left, but two are at home and we are strong at home. We are not running away! When I came I knew it was difficult, but I like pressure. I also told the boys to leave the pressure to me“, said the former champion with CFR Cluj.
