What had become a tradition at FCSB, qualifying year after year in the groups of European competitions, has lately become a major disappointment. For the third consecutive season, Gigi Becali’s club was eliminated before group access, after between 2004 and 2014, inclusive, the team had not lost anything in the autumn in the continental competition.
Due to this situation, the FCSB announces a difficult life in the coming years, if it achieves a participation in the European cups. The coefficient was almost pulverized because between 2018 and 2020 it did not raise anything, compared to two-phase performance up to 5-6 years ago.
In fact, in the 3 years in which the presence in groups was ignored, the accumulated score achieved by FCSB was only 7 points, set as marked in a single season, for example, in 2013-2014, when it was in Champions League groups, where there were only two somewhat positive results, twice 1-1 with Basel.
Who eliminated FCSB in the last 3 years
- 2018: Rapid Vienna, 1-3, 2-1 (Play-off)
- 2019: Guimaraes, 0-0 și 0-1 (Play-off)
- 2020: Slovan Liberec, 0-2 (Turul 3)
The very low score that the FCSB obtained during all this time will seriously sink it in the summer of 2021, when, most likely, it will start again in Europe.
The 2018-2020 journey is worthy of that of some dark teams in relation to what the presence in Europe means. In fact, there are some examples of nameless gangs that did the same as Tănase and company: Sheriff Tiraspol, Shkendija, Suduva, Zrinjski.

Budescu & Alibec, in the last participation in groups
In August 2017, Gigi Becali’s club gained access to the Europa League groups for the last time. Then, the classification was obtained through the preliminaries of the Champions League, where they eliminated Plzen, on the third day. In the play-off they lost the “double” with Sporting, but the team automatically reached the UEL, where they had an excellent route. and caught the European spring.
The coach was Nicolae Dică, and the appearance of the first “11” was extremely attractive: Niță – R. Benzar, Bălașa, Planici, Momcilovici (Morais) – Pintilii, Teixeira – Man, Budescu, Fl. Tănase – Alibec (Gnohere).
2004-2007, fabulous period!
By far the best seasons for FCSB, in terms of European participation, were in the mid-2000s. Between 2004 and 2007, the team achieved an astonishing total score, close to level 50. The results were outstanding. First, in 2004-2005, with Zenga on the bench, he managed to qualify for the UEFA Cup groups, then access in the spring and until the elimination of Valencia! 2005-2006 followed, reaching the semifinals and no fewer than 18 European matches scored. In 2006-2007, FCSB caught the Champions League groups, where they ranked third and qualified for “16” in the UEFA Cup.
FCSB score at that time
Season | scores |
2004-2005 | 11,815 |
2005-2006 | 26,550 |
2006-2007 | 10,740 |
Total | 49,105 |
In the summer of 2008, based on the score obtained in the previous 5 years, FCSB was excellent. It was among the 30 best teams on the continent! It ranks 29th, with a coefficient of 59,400. Behind the FCSB were big names like PSG, Atlético de Madrid, Ajax, Celtic, Tottenham, Bayer Leverkusen, Parma, Hamburg, Bordeaux, Monaco, Stuttgart, Olympiakos, Fenerbahce, Besiktas, Anderlecht, Fiorentina, Lazio, Spartak Moscow.
At the moment, in the virtual ranking that will be taken into account for the score of the series leaders in the next edition, 2021-2022, FCSB is in 64th place, but it will fall because it has already left the competition. Behind him, within walking distance, are many clubs that are still in the game and will accumulate more points. FCSB will almost certainly come out of the top 70! The score is now almost 3 times lower than in 2008, only 21,000!
CFR can pass FCSB!
Not only may the red-blues be out of the top 70 teams, but FCSB could lose, after this season, Romania’s top-ranked team status at the top of the coefficients. The CFR has come from behind and in addition to being still in competition, it also has very good prospects of reaching the Europa League groups again. He will have a rival on hand in the playoffs, the Finns of KuPS Kuopio and will also play in his own field the only round of the dam.
At the moment, there is a gap of 6 points between CFR and FCSB, which in case of success in 90 minutes with KuPS will be reduced to 5 points. If the group is going to manage a course like last year, finished with a qualification in spring, those from Cluj will pass the FCSB!
