Eric Johana completed 90 minutes for the first time in his UTA Arad career but could not help his side beat FC Politehnica on Friday evening.
Johana did have a decent individual performance. He completed two out of three successful dribbles, and made two key passes as he attempted to build on from his last league performance when he produced two assists.
However, his performance was not enough as Arad lost 1-0 the home side, who needed a strike from Shayon Harrison to give them all the three points and leapfrog UTA into 11th place in the standings after 19 games.
