Derby without Tamaș?

It is almost sure, the defender will be suspended for two laps and he won’t play in Ghencea


In the last minute of the yesterday night match, the Israeli “central” gave red cards to Tamas (photo) and Kone. The two caught themselves by the throat and they thrust each other. Immediately after the referee eliminated them Rednic annoyed very much. The coach of the team which is now on the first place realized that in that moment he has lost his stopper for the great derby with Steaua, scheduled on Friday, in Ghencea.

The statute says that “for the bullying made by pulling or pushing it is provided a suspension of minimum two matches and maximum three”. As the least penalty is of two laps, this means that Tamaș won’t play with Steaua. Besides, CFR Cluj cannot use Kone in the next two rounds which are very important: on Wednesday, in the match CFR - Poli Timișoara, and on Saturday, at Urziceni.


“Kone caught me by the throat and I got angry. I apologize to my leaders, to my coaches, to my team-mates and to my fans. It would be a great disappointment for me not to play in derby”
GABRIEL TAMAȘ, defender at Dinamo

“Tamaș could avoid the put-out because he shouldn’t have let himself provoked. He should have dissembled a faint and perhaps only Kone would have received a «red»”
MIRCEA REDNIC, coach at Dinamo
