On Tuesday, starting at 17:30, Romania U21 – Croatia U21 will be disputed from the EURO 20 U21 group, the 2019 edition. “Tricolorii” opens the EURO U21 with a duel for the first time between the two nations, with a certain favorite. Croats have a lot of talent and experience, but Mirel Radoi’s students have shown their qualities in the finals of the final tournament in Italy and San Marino.
After Denis Dragus’s last-minute injury, the selectionist Mirel Radoi urgently summoned Ricardo Grigore, the defender of Dinamo Bucharest. Dragus is a notable absence, being a scorer in the last “test”, score 1-0 with Denmark. However, Radoi can count on experienced scorers such as George Puscas, Andrei Ivan or Adrian Petre. Croatia is a selection that proposes important pedigree names, we think of Alen Halilovic from Standard Liege under contract with AC Milan, Nikola Vlasic from TSKA Moscow, Premier League man for Everton and Duje Caleta-Car, one of France’s most prosperous backers in Marseille. It will be a very difficult confrontation for Romania, but “Tricolorii” have demonstrated their strengths and are able to achieve a positive result on Tuesday.
