Club career

[edit]

"Cornel Dinu, the serious player, who never smiles and maybe that's why he doesn't tremble in front of anyone, even if he has to face an entire stadium. For him, football was never just a game."

– Journalist Ioan Chirilă's words about Dinu in 1974[1]

Cornel Dinu was born in Târgoviște to a Romanian father from Bârlad who worked as a magistrate, lawyer and was a doctor of law and a Serbian mother from Târgoviște who worked as an economist.[2][3][4] He started to play football in 1963 at the junior teams of Metalul Târgoviște working with coaches Eugen Popescu and Gheorghe Ticușan, making his debut for the senior team on 17 March 1965 in a 1–0 victory, in which he gave the assist of the goal against UTA Arad in the 1964–65 Cupa României, after being noticed by Rudolf Wetzer who was the counselor of head coach Gheorghe Nuțescu.[3][5][6][7][8] Dinu also played in the following game of the 1964–65 Cupa României in the quarter-finals against Dinamo București which ended with a 5–0 loss for Metalul where he was noticed by Dinamo's officials, later being brought there at the request of coach Traian Ionescu.[6]

Dinu debuted for Dinamo București in Divizia A under coach Traian Ionescu on 25 September 1966 in a 1–0 loss against Steagul Roșu Brașov.[7][9][10] He remained at Dinamo throughout his career, winning six Divizia A titles, a competition in which he made 454 appearances (only in one of them coming to the field as a substitute) and scored 53 goals, also winning two Cupa României and playing 33 games in which he scored 3 goals in European competitions, including appearing in both legs of the 4–3 victory on aggregate against his childhood favorite team, Inter Milan in the 1981–82 UEFA Cup.[3][7][9][11][12][13][14] His last game played was a Divizia A match which took place on 18 June 1983 against Universitatea Craiova which ended 1–1, being replaced by coach Nicolae Dumitru in the 25th minute with Nelu Stănescu as he suffered an injury.[8][9][12] During his period spent at Dinamo, he graduated the Faculty of Law at the University of Bucharest in 1972, which earned him the nickname "Procurorul" (The Prosecutor).[4][10][15][16]

Dinu won three times (1970, 1972, 1974) the Romanian Footballer of the Year award, also in 1970 along with Dinamo teammate Florea Dumitrache he was nominated for the Ballon d'Or.[3][10][11][12][17][18] In 1979, Dinu had an offer from Bayern Munich which he refused, choosing to stay in Romania, also in 1972 Romanian coach Ștefan Kovács who was in charge of Ajax Amsterdam said about him:"Cornel Dinu could have played at the great Ajax at any time! Why? He is the only Romanian player who has the spirit of total football".[1][19][20][21]

International career

[edit]

Cornel Dinu played 67 matches and scored 3 goals for Romania (75/7 including Romania's Olympic team games), making his debut on 1 May 1968 under coach Angelo Niculescu in a friendly which ended 1–1 against Austria.[22][23][24] He played three games at the successful 1970 World Cup qualifiers, also being used by coach Angelo Niculescu in all the minutes of the three group matches from the final tournament as Romania did not advance to the next stage.[22] He played 9 matches at the 1972 Euro qualifiers, managing to reach the quarter-finals where Romania was defeated by Hungary, who advanced to the final tournament.[22] Dinu played a total of five matches at the 1974 World Cup qualifiers, including being captain in Romania's biggest ever victory, a 9–0 against Finland.[22][25][26] He also played in a 3–1 victory and a 1–1 against Greece at the 1973–76 Balkan Cup and he scored a goal in a 6–1 victory against Denmark at the Euro 1976 qualifiers where he played a total of five games.[22] Dinu made an appearance at the 1978 World Cup qualifiers, two appearances at the Euro 1980 qualifiers, making his last appearance for the national team on 15 April 1981 in a friendly which ended with a 2–1 loss against Denmark.[22][27]

Quotes

[edit]

Cornel Dinu was known for his original ironic comments by using metaphors, parables, quotes from historians or classical writers and references to history:[39][40][41][42][43][44][45]

  • "A funny story. The first match was played in Belfast. I was not in the team. On the way back, a few colleagues said it was a very tough game, 1–0, the Northern Irish are very strong. They were given a bonus, good thing the matches weren't broadcast! When we played in the second leg, I yelled at them to shame them after about 20 minutes. Those guys had no idea about football. They were amateurs, these bearded guys, you had the feeling that they were something between guitarists and waiters. Pure amateurs!" – declaration years later after a 11–0 win over Crusaders in which he scored a goal from the 1973–74 European Cup.[46][47]
  • "Șumudică is a «vero» (n.r. true) Romanian. He combines the fantastic humor and the Romanian spirit very well. He has this spirit to treat phases with humor. His lines are very good. I don't know where he gets this humor from, he has it not only because he was born in the center of Bucharest, in Piața Romană, as he says. He has good quality sidewalk humor. He is not called Ninel for nothing. He is also called Marius, a Latin name. That was the name of Caesar's uncle, the general who fought the German savages head-to-head."
  • "Worker Nicoliță, very hardworking, but the football field is not a construction site."
  • "Philosophy is a transcendental propaedeutic for the death-haunted soul of the Romanian."
  • "Pițurcă is like a Griffon dog that you have to knock off the forehead with a compass and a rake to see if it has a brain."
  • "I started writing the fourth book. I generally write at night and sleep during the day. On the other hand, where should I go out? I apply the famous quote of Țuțea, "you have nothing to look for outside, there are too many imbeciles"."
  • "Gnohéré looked like a simple Foreign Legion unit cook somewhere in Africa in an imaginary war."
  • "This Rambé... I think his name is Ramble. The railway ramble where the train slows down so it doesn't derail."
  • "I have a reserved opinion, in my opinion Peteleu is something between a cave and a cavern as a left defender. The poor guy has big problems! He has speed in the lane, but when he enters, he does it like those who were at old men's at our wall of death. He has some speed, but otherwise quality..."
  • "Matulevičius is good rather as a high voltage pole in the opposing box, maybe only to electrocute the opposing defenders."
  • "Sânmărtean as he plays in many phases when he won't finish the dribbles he starts at 30, 35 meters from the opposing goal. I have the feeling that he is a born tired player!"
  • "Oroș, according to me, is a hole in Astra's indisputable defense! The way Oroș looks means that he eats well at Giurgiu, because he looks more like a rugby pillar. Don't you see how he looks?"
  • "It was a mistake with the display of frankincense. Not in the locker room, not in the cells where the football parishioners stay. It had to start from the Palace, everything starts from there. Well, who brought players like Popescu or Oaidă? They are players without imagination, without technical ability. These players, after they pass the half court, you have to tell them to stop. But who will do this? The monks and prayer witnesses who sit next to Becali are not good at football."
  • "A detective needs to find out what Dinamo is playing and how the players were placed on the field by Bonetti. When you make football players train by climbing the stairs, something that hasn't been done since Teașcă's time, what expectations do you have?! That's the basic training lately, ten stairs up, ten down! It's like those black guys who carried sacks of dirt on their backs in search of Tutankhamun's tomb."
