Romanian football champions CFR
Cluj on Thursday became the leader of Europa League’s Group E after winning in
the first round 2-1 against Lazio Rome on home turf. Lazio had a better first
half, Bastos scoring the first goal. CFR made it even towards the end of the
first half, Ciprian Deac scoring from penalty kick. The second half was
dominated tactically by Dan Petrescu’s trainees. Sending Bilel Omrani onto the
pitch made the difference for Cluj. After two important scoring opportunities,
Omrani eventually scored the winning goal on minute 75.


This was the second win for CFR
Cluj against an Italian team in European inter-club competitions. In 2008, CFR
defeated AS Rome 1-nil away from home in Champions League.


Also on Thursday, in the other
Group E fixture, Rennes of France drew 1-all against Scotland’s Celtic Glasgow.
Therefore CFR tops the group tables with 3 points. In the next group fixture,

Glasgow to take on Celtic. Prior to that, this Sunday CFR will play Romania’s
