SOUNDBITE: (Romanian), Anghel Iordanescu, Romania coach

"It is the most important game of the year. From my point of view I consider that a Romania victory in tomorrow's game would help us make a huge step in resolving the equation for the qualification and in having the guarantee that we will be among the first two qualified teams. "

SOUNDBITE: (Romanian), Anghel Iordanescu, Romania coach

"No one would have imagined that Ireland will be the team that dominates untill now through the number of points gained and it is the surprise team of this competition. "

SOUNDBITE: (Romanian), Razvan Rat, Romania captain:

"Ireland players are first of all powerful players and generally they rely on fixed phases. They've received a goal from Hungary exactly from this kind of fixed phase. This means that they are indeed powerful on fixed phases in attack but at the same time they can be caught in defence with the same approach. "
