"Our national team asphalted the Ukrainians. We played just incredible. Having given the opponent the initiative at the beginning of the match, we managed to then use our chances. I assumed that Romania would give the initiative to the Ukrainians, they would dictate the game, but we were not worried.

The Romanian players ran more than the Ukrainians. Our players sacrificed themselves, and it was visible until the end of the meeting. Not for nothing we had the best defense in the matches of the qualifying cycle - that's how to win games," Maricu is quoted by Fanatik.ro.
