Politehnica Timisoara receives on Saturday the visit of CS Lotus Băile Felix in the 12th round of League 3. In the first leg, the group from Bihore won 2-1 after a goal scored in extra time.

“Like the other games, it will certainly be a difficult game, because the team from Felix is high in the standings, they are on the edge of the play-off places, I think it will be difficult because they are certainly aiming to win this game, like us. Already the last games that we had, that is two defeats, are an extra motivation for the boys to give everything on the pitch in this game to win. It is difficult, it is a difficult moment for us, because we come after two defeats in a row and then we have to find resources, to raise our heads from the ground and fight for every meter of this field and win the game in the end“, said Cristian Gălan, head coach of Politehnicii Timisoara.

“The standings have broken a little bit and if we fail to win it’s definitely the last chance because there are few games left. Unfortunately we met, one after the other, the good teams in the standings but we had to play them all and we have to play them all and I certainly expect that on Saturday, we play at home, we will have a good game. More consistent than the one we had in the game against Lupeni, even if Lupeni didn’t create great goal scoring situations, they had a situation, they scored, then they saw their interest, the same thing we experienced in Pecica. Where the hosts scored with a shot from 25 meters, after which they didn’t have any more chances or goal scoring situations…“, Cristian Gălan added.

In this game Poli cannot count on Eduard Amariei (suspended), David Ciurel and Victor Prună (injured), “Edi Amariei is suspended for four yellow cards. David unfortunately we can’t rely on him until the end of the year, he has a pretty nasty injury and I don’t understand why the referee didn’t sanction that tackle on him. We haven’t made a film yet, because his leg is very swollen, but probably when he will have an MRI we hope that’s all it is (n.r. sprain). The rest of the players are fit“, concluded the coach.
