[@InAeternumRomaMater]

If we get better possession, I do believe we can become a good challenge against greater teams. Without the possession, we are vulnerable on endless attacks from the enemy. In rest, the aggression and pressing was there, great defence and accurate shots. The offensive and defensive was brutal, once again, the possession! We need to work on that, Ukraine had around 70% of ball possession with around over 500 passes, meanwhile Romania 30% with about 200 passes. That's a disaster especially when we will meet great teams, like Belgium which even though lost against Slovakia, doesn't mean we will. If we have the same great spirit, and get better possession, and we have definitively the moral thanks to this great victory, we might got it!

Rațiu ("monstru"- monster) is the Romanian Super Sonic. He plays for Rayo and this season in almost every phase against Real he pocketed Vini.

Stanciu is the brain and the heart of our national team, without him players such as Drăguș, Drăgușin, Man, Mihăilă, Hagi and so on would be just some regular player from some random forgotten divisions.

As a Romanian I can say that the team is solid (even though on the paper we're the last in terms of players value at Euro 2024). We have no super stars therefore this make the team less prone to "egoistic gameplay". The players fight for every ball and they are pushed mainly by the fact that we are the absolute underdogs. We'll make it to the round of 16 probably as 2° or 3°and let's enjoy what comes after as passing the group stage is already a big achievement.
