former Romania midfielder Danut Lupu made a scandalous statement. He said that the result of tomorrow's match of the 3rd round of the group stage of Euro 2024 in Group "E" Slovakia - Romania is already known - it is a draw. Recall, such an outcome of the meeting guarantees both the national team of Romania and the Slovak national team exit from the group in the 1/8 finals of the tournament.
"We will get out of the group by playing a draw with Slovakia. This has already been arranged.
Well, why take the risk? It would be a shame if in such a situation both teams did not get a trip to the 1/8 finals. At this level, the players get along very well. So why create a risk of failure for one of the teams?", - AntenaSport quotes Lupu's words.
Recall, as we have already detailed, in case of a draw in the match Slovakia - Romania, the national team of Ukraine in the parallel match of the group "E" will need to beat Belgium: in any other result it will finish in last place in the group.
