FCSB left Sibiu with one point at the end of a match in which they were left with 10 men from minute 60. Dawa received a direct red card after an irregular intervention in Tarnovanu’s penalty area, and the referee sent him straight to the locker room. The standout player of the match was Andrea Compagno. The FCSB midfielder scored a double.

“I think he is one of the top 5 most useful players at FCSB. Useful, not valuable,” said Horia Ivanovici, followed by Banel Nicolita: “The guy scored two goals, he’s useful, correct. He’s a team player and a player who brings points. It’s good that he scored from the short corner.”
“If we have come to praise a player who played in the 4th league, then we are wrong to praise him. Because it means that we Romanians are in a sorry state if he comes from the 4th league and is good here. Now, if he scores two goals, so what? Does it mean that the central defenders in Romania and the Romanian league are weak?” said Danut Lupu.
“If a player from the 4th league in Italy comes and we praise him, what if we bring a player from the 4th league in Romania to play in the first league in Italy? Nobody would notice him. They would ask him where he plays, they would hear the 4th league, and they would send him home,” said Valeriu Rachita.
“If that’s the case, then all the sports scouts, all the managers in Italy should tear up their credentials if Compagno reaches the national team. Well, he was playing in the 4th league at 21 years old, at San Marino at 23,” said Valeriu Rachita for FANATIK SUPERLIGA.
Compagno was brought from FCU Craiova last season for 1.5 million euros. The Italian striker quickly established himself in FCSB’s starting 11 and was the team’s top scorer last season. This year, Compagno had a slow start, but his double against Hermannstadt confirmed his status as a team regular.
Compagno has reached 4 goals this season
The draw in the away match in Sibiu is the first for FCSB this year. Gigi Becali’s team had 7 wins and 1 loss before the duel with Hermannstadt. Thus, after playing the rescheduled match, FCSB has 22 points in 9 matches played and is in first place in Liga I.
“I ask, if Andrea Compagno was Romanian, would he be good for the national team? I think so. First, we don’t have top-level strikers in Romania. If we think about the Romanian forwards who are better. I think he would have been a player in the Romanian national team,” said Andrei Vochin.
“When you are put on Italy’s extended list, okay, and Italy is in a crisis of strikers, but still, Mancini put him there on a longer list. The 6th, 7th striker, out of all the attackers Italy has on the market,” said Andrei Vochin.
