The Romanian footballers met Bulgaria in a friendly in Bucharest on Tuesday. The match ended in a goaless draw and the Romanians managed a better first half with a series of interesting combinations, which sadly they were unable to capitalize on.<\/p>\n
In the second half of the game, the visitors put on a couple of bold attacks and tested the abilities of the Romanian goalie who managed to promptly intervene several times during the game.<\/p>\n
Romania even benefitted a penalty shot half into the game after a challenge on skipper Stanciu. Dennis Man tried to fire home but his shot was saved by the Bulgarian goalkeeper.<\/p>\n
The match ended nil-all and Romania hasn\u2019t defeated Bulgaria for the past 35 years. Their last victory was in May 1989, when Romania managed a one-nil win in Bucharest which counted towards the 190 World Cup qualifiers.<\/p>\n
