A moment of confusion in the Ukrainian defense saw a clever back pass from the defender, and goalkeeper Lunin stepped up with a long pass, only to have it decisively intercepted by Dennis Mann. Immediately afterward, with Dennis Mann's precise distribution, Stanciu struck a stunning shot on goal as Romania jumped into the lead with a 1-0 scoreline.
Slow-motion replay reveals that Lunin's mistake was no fluke, as a teammate's error put him in a difficult position and Stanchou was relentless, firing a powerful shot that sent the ball like an arrow out of the string straight into the net.
Among these highlights was Stanchou's world class shot that reached 116 kilometers per hour and was 21 meters away from the goal.
It is worth noting that the goal was Stanciu's debut for the Romanian national team and the first Romanian player to break the deadlock at the Euros in 24 years. As of now, he has made 71 appearances for the national team, contributing 15 goals.
Stanciu is no stranger to Chinese Super League fans, having joined Wuhan Sanzhen in February 2022, where he spent more than half a year. During that time, he made 53 appearances, scoring 11 goals and dishing out 26 assists, before moving to Saudi Arabia's Darmak in September 2023 for a transfer fee of €2.5 million.
