Romania - Sweden 1-0

"Ion Oblemenco" stadium - Craiova - March 27th 2018

Romania met Sweden in a friendly game. Probably it was the most animated friendly game ever. That happened because of the fans of FC U 1948 - the historical team called in the past "Universitatea" Craiova. After this football team was abusively rejected from Romanian football the fans remained without a football team. More than this, the socialist political party (PSD) invented by night a football team with the same colors and symbols pretending that was the real Universitatea Craiova. This fake team is called CSU. UEFA doesn't agree with such a situation but, in Romania, the CSU easily stolen our stadium and our history. They started to play in the Romanian Second League just like this, even though Romanian football has 5 leagues and a new team should start from the lowest one.

In such circumstances the fans of FC U 1948 were sent out from their home - "Ion Oblemeco" stadium - and forced to start again from the last league of Romanian football. Today FC U 1948 is in the 4th Romanian Football League and is still banned to play its games on our former stadium. We are forced to play somewhere out of the city of Craiova, but in such conditions our team won all the games until now and has the biggest chances to promote in the 3rd League in this summer.

When the Romanian Football Federation (FRF) decided to play this friendly game against Sweden in Craiova all the fans of FC U 1948 bought tickets at this game. This was the only chance for them to show in Europe what a terrible injustice suffered their team. Romania did a great football game and won by 1-0 but this wasn't so important. The entire world was able to see there is angry people in Romania because of stealing of their property and replacing it with a clone. This happened by an abusive political involvement in football. PSD is not a socialist party, is a new communist dictatorial party using in Romania the methods they used in the '50s. This is our fight and it will never end!  

FC Universitatea 1948

As you might know, Universitatea Craiova was ejected from Romanian football by the ex-president of FRF (Romanian Football Federation) - Mircea Sandu. He was unsatisfied by disobedience of our club regarding his corruption policy and decided by himself to erase our team from Romanian football. More than that,  after 2 years, he contacted the most important Romanian political party and they founded a new team with the same colors and symbols pretending they are the real Universitatea Craiova. 

Because of this our team was forced to change its name in FC U 1948 Craiova, a name that explicitly shows we have the continuity of the old Universitatea Craiova. After all these years of fighting in justice and football fields in the same time FC U 1948 was denied to play on our stadium. Since 2011 we are forced to find new stadiums or football fields in order to remain a football team. Today March 26th 2018 it was the first time our players got access on Ion Oblemenco stadium, our home. It was very hard to get inside, but our players still managed to do it. Our fight still continues and it will never end!
