Romania to take no chances against Liechtenstein

Romania took no risks and called up 11 of their top overseas-based players to face group seven underdogs Liechtenstein in their final Euro 2000 qualifier away on October 9.

Romania are group leaders with 21 points, one point ahead of Portugal, and need a win against bottom-placed Liechtenstein to confirm their place in the 2000 finals in the Netherlands and Belgium.

Dorinel Munteanu, who plays midfield for Germany's Wolfsburg, and defender Iulian Filipescu of Spain's Real Betis are banned for two bookings in previous games and will miss next week's match.

Squad:

Goalkeepers: Bogdan Lobont (Rapid Bucharest), Bogdan Stelea (Salamanca)

Defenders: Dan Petrescu (Chelsea), Liviu Ciobotariu (Dinamo Bucharest), Dan Lacusta (Astra Ploiesti), Gica Popescu (Galatasaray Istanbul), Stefan Nanu (Vitesse Arnhem), Cosmin Contra (Alaves)

Midfielders: Ovidiu Sabau (Rapid Bucharest), Ionut Lupescu (Dinamo Bucharest), Laurentiu Rosu (Steaua Bucharest), Gheorghe Hagi-cap (Galatasaray Istanbul), Costel Galca (Espanyol), Ovidiu Stinga (Ajax Amsterdam)

Forwards: Florentin Petre (Dinamo Bucharest), Adrian Ilie (Valencia), Viorel Moldovan (Fenerbahce Istanbul), Ionel Ganea (Stuttgart).
