It seems that the roof of National Arena has been closed earlier today. But it affected the pitch a lot. Hope that the draining system will do it's job properly until the match. Here are pictures with the pitch taken a few hours ago: And proof that the roof is closed: Steaua is on first place in Liga 1 with 2 games less played, but that doesn't mean anything. Liga 1 is much lower as value than other leagues from West of Europe. Steaua remained the same as the previous games. Same coach, same team, same motivation, but with 3 players less, 2 CB and 1 striker. Ofc we got Piovaccari and Kapetanos as Strikers. Reghecampf(Steaua's coach/boss) just admited how he will gonna play tomorrow night. "We will treat different this game, we'll try to block the midfield of the field no matter who is gonna play there. We want to leave as less spaces as we can, and be much more organised." Btw, Hazard didn't made it to Bucharest because he's injured and he's staying home. Also Kevin de Bruyne was left home because of a "technical decision". I'm expecting a difficult game for both teams. Seems that there will be only 40,000 people in the stands, with 10,000 less than last game vs Chelsea at home. But still the crowd is fantastic here. There will be a close game until one of the teams will score first. Afterwards, anything can happen. Anyway, if Steaua will score 2 goals, we tend to be satisfied and retreat in defence the entire game. Clearly, Chelsea is the better team, but if you don't take this game as serious as we do, there might be surprises. Also, this is why Mourinho stormed out from the press conference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sW0_L2HQnX0

The pitch was changed a month ago for the games of the National Team vs Hungary and Turkey. So atm it's pretty damn good. The bad news for both teams is that yesterday started to rain here and it will rain until the day past the Steaua - Chelsea game. During the match it will be a heavy rain falling, but if the organisators are smart, they'll close the roof of the stadium. (There is a 50-50 chance of that happening. Depends on how fast Steaua asked for this. They need to make a request to Town Hall with 3-4 days before the game. )

Really wanted to start this topic. So, what do you expect after the games from this spring 0-1 Away and 3-1 Home with them?

I'm a Steaua's fan, but here is what I think you guys will put into field today: ---------------Cech Azpi-----Luiz-------Cahill-----Cole ---------------Ramires Mikel---------------Oscar ---------------Mata ------Hazard----------Torres At least, this is the best team to face us tonight. Just my opinion.

Thank you a lot blues! Hope that Chelsea wins. See you on thursday on Stamford Bridge.

Suarez scored for Liverpool and the assist was Jose Enrique. P.S. Can someone please reply to my question posted a few posts above?

Guys, I have a question. If Chelsea beats Man Utd this game, are they qualified for the Semi-finals of FA Cup? or they need to play a home game against them as well? I was surprised to see that Blackburn made a draw with Millwall and they will play one more match on 13th march. I was betting earlier today and one of the games is that Chelsea will qualify. I just want to know if they will qualify if they win now.. or if there will be one more game to play?
