The FCSB Chronicle

A fracture rules Dylan Batubinsika out for 95 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason FCSB will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Juri Cisotti scores twice — 8.60
Two goals and a mark of 8.60 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

A falling-out at FCSB
Juri Cisotti and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Juri Cisotti sends FCSB past Viitorul
It finished 2‑1, and it was Juri Cisotti’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to FCSB.
Looking ahead28 Sep 2026
FCSB and CFR Cluj meet at the summit
The fixture the rest of the division is looking forward to more than either of the sides in it. Both know a win changes the season and a defeat does not end it, which is what makes it hard to play.

Denis Drăguş was on a different afternoon to everybody else
8.03. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.
The dugout28 Sep 2026
Siyabonga Ngezana gets it from the manager
“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The half-term report on FCSB
Position 1, 24 points, and every result so far reduced to one line. The second half of the season starts with the same squad and a different set of expectations.

A costly moment from Siyabonga Ngezana
One lapse, one goal, and ninety minutes of honest work counting for nothing. That is the job at FCSB, and it is a cruel one.
