Steaua suffered last night in front of an ambitious and tenacious, but in the end they assured the fourth victory of the same number of official matches
At Piatra-Neamţ, Steaua gave last evening the first serious thesis from this season. And the exam brought Nicoliţă and the company again with the feet on the ground, who went off the rails after the representations from Europe League.
The warming-up exercises with the modest Ujpest and Motherwell had only the designation of summoning up the tonus in Ghencea.
Tactic "Flocea style"
Florin Marin prepared to the players from Steaua the well-known lesson "signed Flocea": a defensive phase in the "concrete" style, a play without complications, agglomeration on the area of circulation of the ball which was at the adversary and adventures on the counterattack. Especially on the wings, where the binder couples defender-midfielder worked at high speed.
Besides, from here came quickly the first dangerous for the guests goalpost. Bădescu centered from the right side for Fabbron (5), Tătăruşanu went out faulty and the ball deviated to Gafiţa, who sent a lobe towards the empty goalpost, situation saved acrobatically, in extremis, by the capitain Goian. Immediately, Steaua’s goalkeeper drew out a dangerous recovery of the Brazilian from the German offensive (6).
Two warning signals which didn’t awake the team from Bucharest to reality. Surdu played without any result, the middle line didn’t find anymore the tracks learned in the speedy matches from Europe, and the people on the binders got stuck regularly with the blocks assured assiduously by the young players of Ceahlău. Only Nicoliţă (27) centered towards Bogdan Stancu, but "The cat" finished weakly, missing the bar from a central position.
Golden end
After the break, Bergodi’s replaces, with Andrei Ionescu, Ochiroşii and Kapetanos, were meant to offer a relax moment for Steaua. The purpose was achieved, because, the team from Ghencea, which entered hardly in the rhythm in the new formula, managed in the end to control the end of the match. With the Greek Kapetanos the same saver established from the last championship: the ball was placed perfectly by Surdu and the well placed i cap plasat al vîrfului Stelei pentru un 1-0 obţinut cu limba scoasă (80). Toja increased the score, 2-0, but the impression is still the same: Steaua didn't play very well.
