The Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne has cancelled the 3-point penalty with which Gaz Metan Medias has been sanctioned late last year by Romanian Football Federations Licensing Committee. The sanction was enforced for an allegedly pending debt to the Bulgarian club Cernomorets Burgas, yet Gaz Metan Medias has denied the existence of such a debt.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne has cancelled the 3-point penalty with which Gaz Metan Medias has been sanctioned late last year by Romanian Football Federations Licensing Committee. The sanction was enforced for an allegedly pending debt to the Bulgarian club Cernomorets Burgas, yet Gaz Metan Medias has denied the existence of such a debt.
Romanian national football team manager, the German Christoph Daum, in an interview on the Romanian Football Federations official YouTube channel, FRF TV, stated the match Romania would play next month against Denmark will be crucial for the national squads qualification campaign ahead of the 2018 edition of the World Cup. Daum went on to say top priority for him was the creation of a playing style, and if the national squad succeeded to have a spectacular progress, then results were sure to come.
Cristoph Daum also said: “Thats what I want to see in the game against Denmark, I want to prove its something weve been working on, we need the three points, yet we need to focus more on how we manage to work together, on how we play, more than we can focus on results proper. If we play very good, good results and success are sure to come.
Cristoph Daum also said he would like national squad fans to encourage the players in a decent manner, without using fireworks, crackers and torches. We recall that because of the incidents sparked by fans in the match against Poland, Romania was officially banned from playing their forthcoming home fixture on the National Arena in Bucharest, so the game against Denmark will be hosted by the central Transylvanian city of Cluj on March the 26th.
According to preliminary E Group rankings, Poland are at the top of the table with 10 points, followed by Montenegro, with 7 points, Denmark, with 6 points, Romania, with 5 points, Armenia, with 3 points, and Kazakhstan, with 2 points.(Translated by E. Nasta)
