Only three stadiums suitable for Euro 2012 preliminary matches

Only three stadiums in Romania can host preliminary matches for the Euro 2012 competition, the Romanian Football Federation  (FRF) said today (Weds).

FRF said that UEFA standards had been raised and only the following three stadiums would be allowed to host such matches: Steaua in Bucharest, Dr. Constantin Radulescu in Cluj and Dan Paltinisanu in Timisoara.

The FRF will ask UEFA to inspect other two stadiums, Ceahlaul in Piatra Neamt and Ion Oblemenco in Craiova.

Falling Oltenii lose 2-1 to Gaz Metan Medias

U. Craiova lost today at home (even though they were playing in a different town, really)*, final score 2-1 to Gaz Metan.

Goals:
Universitatea Craiova - Eugen Trica (90').
Gaz Metan Medias - A. Litu (9') and  F. Lazãr (68').

*U. Craiova are having many problems at the moment, including problems with Craiova's mayor. As a result, we cannot even use our own stadium, Ion Oblemenco, we have to play in a town called Severin.
