Romania Coach: We may win!

Romania Head Coach Victor Piturca stated that Romania are not the favourites to win the encounter against such a big football nation, but admitted that a win would be highly appreciated by the players and the fans, and the fact that they are considered underdogs may eventually benefit them.

“If we manage to win [against France], it will be extraordinary – for the team, Romanian football and our supporters.”

“They are World Cup finalists and, along with Italy, Brazil and Argentina, among the best teams in the world.”

“But I don’t think it will be a surprise if we win. Being underdogs may be a slight advantage but it’s nothing big.”

“Obviously Romania are considered the worst of the teams but this could change. People may then consider we are at the same level.” – Victor Piturca

Adrian Mutu is fit to play against France and he will join his teammates Niculae, Contra, Chivu (c), Lobont (GK), Tamas, Goian, Rat, Cocis, Radoi and Nicolita in the Romanian Line-up.
