Striker Ilie doubtful for Romania friendly

BUCHAREST, June 2 (Reuters) - Valencia striker Adrian Ilie, recovering from a leg muscle strain, is doubtful for Romania's Euro 2000 warm-up against Greece on Saturday.

'Ilie has not recovered yet from his muscle strain which has put him out of action over the past 10 days,' team doctor Pompiliu Popescu said. He may, however, come on for a few minutes.

Ilie missed Romania's friendly against the Netherlands last Saturday when the Dutch won 2-1.

Romania will be without first choice goalkeeper Bogdan Stelea who is on duty for his Spanish club Salamanca on Sunday.

In Euro 2000, Romania are in the same group as Germany, Portugal and England.

Probable teams:
Romania - Bogdan Lobont; Cosmin Contra, Liviu Ciobotariu, Gheorghe Popescu, Cristian Chivu, Dan Petrescu, Constantin Galca, Gheorghe Hagi, Dorinel Munteanu, Viorel Moldovan, Adrian Mutu (Ionel Ganea).
Greece - Antonis Nikopolidis; Dimitris Mavrogenidis, Grigoris Georgatos, Nikos Dabizas, Marinos Ouzounidis, George Amanatidis, Angelos Basinas, Vassilis Tsartas, George Georgiadis, Andreas Niniadis, Costas Konstantinidis.
Referee: Marian Salomir (Romania)
