"The hero from Cardiff" is a phrase usually associated with the goalkeeper of the Romanian national football team, Florin Prunea, for his performance in the historic match against Wales on November 17, 1993, score 2-1. This victory qualified Romania for the 1994 World Cup, marking the birth of the "Golden Generation". In 1994, he went to the World Cup in the USA as a reserve for Bogdan Stelea. However, after the disaster with Switzerland, he returned to the goal and shone with the USA and Argentina. But the game with Sweden followed and, since then, the synonym of the nightmare for him and for Romanian football bears the name of Kennet Andersson.
