Romania-Austria 1-1 in World Cup Qualifier Group 7

This score means that Romania has no more chances to go to the World Cup 2010 in South Africa.

First, Gigel Bucur scored for Romania in the 54th minute, but almost at the end of the match the Austrian Schiemer leveled the score.

This was the first match played at home for Romania ever since Razvan Lucescu was appointed coach of the national team.

Razvan Lucescu declared after  that he would have preferred his players to play bad, but to win.
