Moment of silence in Parliament in memory of Mircea Lucescu
The Parliament of the Republic of Moldova observed a minute of silence in memory of former head coach of Romania’s national football team Mircea Lucescu.
The moment took place at the beginning of today’s plenary session, following a proposal by MP Renato Usatîi.
MPs paid tribute to one of the most prominent figures in sports, as a sign of respect and recognition of his contribution.
Mircea Lucescu passed away on 7 April at the age of 80. A former international footballer and one of the most decorated coaches in football history, Mircea Lucescu was born on July 29, 1945, in Bucharest. He coached Romania’s national team between 1981 and 1986, managing to qualify for the UEFA European Championship in France – Euro ’84. During this period, he led the national team in 59 matches. He then coached Dinamo Bucharest (from 1986), with which he won a national title (1989–1990) and two Romanian Cups (1985–1986 and 1989–1990), also reaching the semifinals of the Cup Winners’ Cup (1990).
In 2010, he was ranked among the world’s top 100 coaches (41st place) for the first decade of the 21st century (2001–2010), according to the standings compiled by the International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS).
