FCSB prevailed, on Saturday evening, in front of the Farul Constanța team, score 2-1, and became, mathematically, the new champion of the Superliga. The goals for the red-blues were scored by Miculescu and Băluță, and Rivaldino scored for Gheorghe Hagi’s team.
FCSB ended the nine-year wait and managed to claim a new championship title after defeating the previous season’s champion, Farul Constanța. Gheorghe Hagi, the “sailors” coach, spoke highly of the new champion from Romania:
“We have to congratulate them. They dominated the championship. The best team. We, like the other clubs, had fluctuations, we didn’t have a line. Today we tried, we wanted, we wanted, but there were few achievements. We could, I think, do much more if we weren’t so hasty. I think we should talk less and congratulate the opponent, FCSB, who is the champion of Romania and deserves congratulations. It was a very tough fight in the play-off, you only meet strong teams, anything can happen, but I think that if we were more careful in some moments we could do more”, declared Gică Hagi.
The students trained by the Cypriot technician Elias Charalambous and second Mihai Pintilii celebrated the victory together with the fans who came to the National Arena to be with their favourites. After midnight, the FCSB champions arrived at the base in Berceni where the party continues at this time.

“We must never forget and must forget what is happening in Romanian football. Dinamo is in last place, Rapid has been relegated. My merit is that I kept the team high, in the European cups. I’m not what I used to be… I’m not old anymore. I am wiser. I don’t gain anything by being crazy. Do we have to see what this title means? What did I get it for? I took it for nothing if they don’t go to the European Cups. I don’t care about the title if I don’t go to the European Cups. That’s why I take the title.
And for that I have to take 7-8 players. From the Romanian championship, there are about 3 that I know. Alibec, maybe Louis Munteanu, there are also Mititelu’s from Craiova, if I get along with him. Yes, Baeten. It can also be Kiki, who I talked about a few months ago, but I said I don’t negotiate until the championship is over.
I need players who can come in now. We have a strategy, and we are starting to work on it now. We were also looking for two players in Africa, a central defender and a forward. We also need a peak, which we now have. We must have two teams. Let’s not have problems like in the past. We need to be able to alternate teams. I don’t even give 500,000 euros on Otele. He did nothing with us, with Rapid or Craiova. I am no longer interested! I would have given a million on him. Now I just want it for free.
I don’t know how much money I give. I don’t make budgets. If I find a Coman and a Tănase, I give millions. It’s only now my job. I’m not good at football. Start what I’m good at. To buy and sell. Gigi, are you smart or stupid? If you’re stupid, stay home! If you have intelligence, you take 7-8 players. You give money and you get millions from the European cups”, said Gigi Becali on the show “Fotbal Club”, from DigiSport.
