14. 11. 2006 |  

The three most famous Bucharest clubs occupy the first three positions of the Rumanian league after fourteen completed rounds. Dinamo is clearly ahead with 39 points, Steaua is the second with 28 points and Rapid on the third position has 26 points with the active score difference 26:11. Rapid Bucharest is on the second position in the five-member group G of the UEFA Cup after two rounds as the team tied twice. At home with SG 0:0 and in Israel with Hapoel Tel Aviv 2:2. They guest FK Mladá Boleslav in the third round. It means that two teams any of which has not won so far are going to meet and both of them need to win in order to keep hope of qualifying for the spring battles of the European cup.
The players of Mladá Boleslav travel in the Rumanian capital two weeks later and can look forward to a football inferno that will certainly be created by the audience in the Valentin Stanescu stadium for nineteen thousand spectators. The atmosphere of the local football environment can be illustrated by information that the top Rumanian football authority discussed repeated riots of the supporters of the all three biggest Bucharest clubs (Steaua, Dinamo and Rapid) in this October and decided to play the nearest home league matches in front of empty stands.
