February 18, 2017, Volunteer Stadium: “Anghel Iordanescu”, time: 12:00 (Ligue 1 – Round 23)
Voluntari
FC Volunteers managed unexpectedly good result against Steaua Bucharest, which ended in a draw, 2-2, National Arena (Fernando Boldrin 31, 87P Gnohéré Harlem-Eddy – Peter Ivanovich 3 Florin Cernat 81P). With a little attention, the squad coached by Florin Marin could achieve victory, given that it was 2-1 after 87 minutes FC in the previous round was surpassed Volunteer Cash CS Universitatea Craiova 5-0, so draw with FCSB it was a surprise.
After 23 rounds, “purple and white” are in 10th place with 26 points, 6 points of the play-offs. Theoretically, they can hope for 6th place, because it would be a big surprise if they would win in the last stages of the regular season on CSM Gaz Metan Medias and Politehnica Iasi at home or traveling ASA Targu Mures. Virtually impossible to catch the play-off, because there is no time, and counter-candidates will not lose the line.
So ilfovenii will play again in the play-out. They have one success in recent 7 rounds, with CFR Cluj and that using referees, so I can not lay claim to places 5 or 6. Compared to last year, Volunteers has no problems with relegation (in June to save dam 3-0 and 0-1 against UTA). Now his boys “Flocea” will try to beat Gaz Metan Medias to take revenge after the defeat of the tour. They have a moral better after the draw with Steaua and without pressure, will try to tick first victory of the year.
Vasile Maftei received in the match against Steaua 4th yellow card of the season and will be suspended one stage. Ilfov County defender has been warned against Dinamo parties, ACS Poli Timişoara and CS Universitatea Craiova.
And will be missing striker Adrian Balan, who is injured but will return after suspension stage right mijlocaşzl Michael Căpăţână.
Volunteers alongside FC Pandurii has the worst defense in Ligue 1
Florin Marin’s team has 4 wins in 11 home games
Ilfoveni last 3 matches were over 2.5 goals
Gaz Metan Medias
After the draw in Timişoara (1-1) was followed by a defeat, Gaz Metan Medias being defeated at home by CFR Cluj 2-1 (Daniel Sikorski 85 – 64 Billel Omrani, Adrian Alexandru-Peacock 72). It was a match that “gaziştii” should not have to lose, given the situation in the rankings.
The team coached by Cristian Pustai remained in 4th place in the standings, with 35 points after 23 rounds. Even though they lost to Cluj and came trembling-place play-off, “black and whites” have received excellent news this week! Specifically, the Court of Arbitration for Sport overturned the penalty of 3 points which was penalized team Gaz Metan Medias. Now the group Tarnava Mare has 38 points, 6 points Dinamo and Astra Giurgiu (champion has a match less played).
In the last 3 stages Transylvanians have won only one point out of 9 possible, but if they win the Volunteers would be trained mathematical play-off. The next opponent will be Steaua Bucharest and Universitatea Craiova CS so that I was still nervous. Until then it will be moving from volunteers, which is not easy. Dinamo will probably beat at this stage the FC Botosani, CFR and she will check 3 points with ASA Targu Mures and Astra Giurgiu could win at FC Future. Players do not have a moral good too, but will have to mobilize and try to win the Volunteers.
Guests have players injured or suspended for the match in Volunteers. Compared to the previous round, will return after suspension stage left defender Dario Rugašević. Croat has not played against CFR Cluj after receiving a red card in moving to Timisoara.
