Squad24 Aug 2026

Andrei Burca keeps Pandurii in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 11 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Razvan Chiriches damages knee ligaments — 31 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 31 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match19 Aug 2026

Razvan Chiriches sends Pandurii through

Cup ties wait for somebody to seize them, and Razvan Chiriches obliged against Voluntari. 4‑3 on the night, and the name in the next round’s hat is Pandurii.

Match19 Aug 2026

Cruel end for Voluntari as Pandurii pounce

There is no crueller way to lose a football match. Pandurii scored in the 122th minute, the restart barely happened, and the away end was still standing when the whistle went.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Age has not caught Claudiu Deac yet — 8.11

At 35 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.11 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Market24 Aug 2026

Mihai Cicaldau asks to leave Pandurii

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Adrian Tanase goes up and wins it — 7.43

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 7.43 for the rest of it.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Pandurii

Vlad Deac was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

The terraces24 Aug 2026

Pandurii supporters have found a favourite in Bogdan Maxim

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 20-year-old it feels ownership of. Bogdan Maxim has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Squad17 Aug 2026

A one-man rearguard from Andrei Burca

There were 8 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Market17 Aug 2026

Astra come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Pandurii did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Match15 Aug 2026

Pandurii cannot stop winning

3 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Vlad Deac in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Pandurii this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Vlad Deac runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 22. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match15 Aug 2026

Pandurii see off Voluntari

Three points for Pandurii, 3‑2 the final word against Voluntari in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Market17 Aug 2026

Pandurii sell Marius Hagi for $63.0K

Marius Hagi has left for Astra in a $63.0K deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

The terraces17 Aug 2026

Pandurii supporters have found a favourite in Stefan Deac

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Stefan Deac has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Ninety minutes of Andreas Ivan at his very best

Marked 8.13. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Pandurii.

Razvan Dragusin could not have asked for more on his first appearance — 7.74

Debuts are survived rather than enjoyed. This one was enjoyed: 7.74, 1 goals, and a manager already being asked whether he starts again next week.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

A brace, and Ciprian Nita takes the afternoon — 8.90

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Ciprian Nita provided it, and the 8.90 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Market3 Aug 2026

Yokohama F. Marinos watching Ciprian Nita

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Pandurii have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Market3 Aug 2026

Stefan Deac raises the bar for Pandurii

“I want to be playing for trophies while my legs still let me.” Nothing in that sentence is a transfer request, and nobody at Pandurii heard it as anything else.

Market3 Aug 2026

Pandurii turn down Astra for Marius Hagi

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Ciprian Nita in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Pandurii this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match1 Aug 2026

Ciprian Nita sends Pandurii past Petrolul

It finished 3‑2, and it was Ciprian Nita’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Pandurii.

The terraces3 Aug 2026

Pandurii supporters have found a favourite in Razvan Dragusin

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 18-year-old it feels ownership of. Razvan Dragusin has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Squad3 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Andrei Burca

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Andrei Burca, and the manager let it.
