Universitatea Craiova - Farul Constanta 1-0

It was a great fight this game. Universitatea won because of the goal scored by Saceanu, the player who carries nr. 8 T-shirt. In Craiova nr.8 is the most important number of the team. Great football players had this number and they never disappointed their fans. Their names: Ilie Balaci, Gh. Craioveanu, P. Badea, S. Cristescu.

So, nowadays, Saceanu is the man who continues this tradition.

Unfortunately, this game was spoiled by some incidents in stadium. A group of fans attacked another fan of the same team. This happening tells enough about the primitive civilization in Romanian stadiums. See the picture bellow:I hope such things never happen again.
