Match

The small margins put Farul Constanța out

Out, 1‑1 to CSM Slatina, and the long argument about which of the small moments decided it. The league is all there is now, and everybody knows it.

Match

Ionuţ Vînă leads the rout of FK Csíkszereda

3‑0, and Ionuţ Vînă took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Farul Constanța tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Player ratings

Ionuţ Vînă scores twice — 8.20

Two goals and a mark of 8.20 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad

Rafael Munteanu decides it from twelve yards

1 kept out in the shoot-out, and a stadium that will still be describing them in twenty years. A goalkeeper only needs one of these to be remembered forever.

Player ratings

Age has not caught Jakub Vojtuš yet — 7.94

At 33 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 7.94 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Player ratings

André Seruca goes up and wins it — 7.61

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.61 for the rest of it.

The dugout

Rafael Munteanu: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Farul Constanța have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad

Rafael Munteanu is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 20 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Player ratings

Eduard Radaslavescu beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 21. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

In brief
