On June 27, Beijing time, Romanian player Innis Hagi was interviewed by the media before the third round of the Europa League group stage against Slovakia. He shared the valuable advice he received from his father, the legendary Romanian footballer Gheorghe Hagi, and expressed his gratitude to the fans and the team's determination.
When talking about the advice his father gave him, Innis Haji said, "My father just told me to think about the difference between who I was two years ago and who I am now. He encouraged me to believe in myself and to be patient and wait for the moment that belongs to me because everything will come naturally. Other than that, he didn't give me any more specific advice." These words clearly gave Innis Haji a lot of confidence and motivation.
Innis Haji added: "We would like to thank all the fans for their patience. It has not been easy for the fans as the Romanian team has not been performing as well as it should have over the last decade or so. Therefore, we hope that the fans will continue to believe in us because we are all good players, we love soccer, we love the national team and we will do everything we can. We are fully committed to this jersey and do not fear any opponent."
