Former head coach of Kyiv "Dynamo" Mircea Lucescu, who now heads the Romanian national team, accused the players of the Kosovo national team of disrupting the match between these teams in the Nations League.
Mircea Lucescu (photo: prosport.ro)— They had no reason to protest like that. We are athletes and do our job on the field. No one can force others to behave differently. There were no shouts against Kosovo. Such behavior is unacceptable, I have no words. There are no more discussions. When everything ends like this — it’s a disgrace and a feeling of shame primarily for them.
It’s clear that they were ready to do this. They played well, a very good team; we didn’t play that well, but there was pressure to qualify. I don’t want to discuss anything further. Now we must finish this campaign properly in the match against Cyprus.
I congratulate the guys because, from their readiness to give everything on the field, they succeeded. Qualification is qualification. Usually, we would win 3:0; that’s what should have happened after they left the field, — Lucescu was quoted by Digi Sport.
