FCSB’s Administrative Council President Mihai Stoica expressed strong dissatisfaction with the team’s attitude and performance in their 3-1 victory against Inter d’Escaldes in the Champions League first qualifying round. Stoica specifically reprimanded David Miculescu for missing an open-goal chance, despite a quality assist by veteran Chiricheș, emphasizing the need for greater professionalism to handle the demanding travel and fixture schedule. He also criticized Siyabonga Ngezana’s defensive errors that led to the conceded goal. Stoica stressed that such performances are unacceptable given a 13,000 strong home crowd and warned that future opponents will be far more challenging, calling for urgent improvement ahead of the second leg[1][2][3].
This candid appraisal signals FCSB’s intent to tighten their focus for tougher rounds in Europe, highlighting the pressure on players to raise their standards.
