The tricolors will perform without captain Nicolae Stanciu, who was injured in the match with Kosovo, and without Dennis Man, who is suspended for the accumulation of yellow cards. For this reason, Mircea Lucescu appointed Darius Olaru and Ianis Hagi.
Helmut Duckadam: “Olaru risks leaving this batch alone!”
Ilie Dumitrescu believes that Darius Olaru will adapt to the style imposed by Mircea Lucescu and will play a good game against Cyprus.
”He will be used somewhere in the inter position. At FCSB he plays behind the striker, here it is a 4-3-3, it suits him, he comes from the second line, he comes from the back. He is an important player for the national team. I hope he prevails, because he has very good developments in the club team“, said Ilie Dumitrescu at Digi Sport.
Helmut Duckadam gave a piece of advice to the FCSB captain. The legendary goalkeeper believes that Olaru should play much more simply in the first national team and stop trying to do everything on the field, as he used to do at FCSB.
If he fails to do so, Duckadam says Olaru is in danger of missing out on further international call-ups.
”Back to Olaru, I think he should play much more simply than he does at FCSB, to be able to get into the rhythm of the national team, because otherwise he might leave this group alone. To play much more simply, at FCSB they expect him to do everything, he to score, he to pass, here I think he should get into the rhythm of the team“, added Helmut Duckadam.
