Corbeanu: A Special Moment
Blackpool FC August 27, 2022
Theo Corbeanu admits his late equaliser against Bristol City is a moment he'll remember for a long time.
The Wolves loanee grabbed a late equaliser in a thrilling 3-3 draw at Blomfield Road, and he was delighted to grab his second of the season in the game.
"It was a very special moment, and one that I'll never forget," he said.
"To come on and make an impact in the way I did and to see the stadium erupt in the way it did was one of the best moments of my career so far. The gaffer said to me to go on and do what I can to make my mark, and I feel I did that.
"Of course, it's a shame we couldn't get the result we wanted, as I think we were quite comfortable throughout the game. They did well to come back into it, so credit to them, but as a team we were looking for more from the game."
That's now two goals in consecutive matches for the winger, and Corbeanu admits he's been working on key areas of his game in recent weeks.
"If I want to play at a high level and play in the Championship, then I need to improve certain areas of my game," he said.
"An area I think I need to work on is when we are out of possession and I'm doing my best to work on that. In the past two games, I've got two goals where I've chased down lost causes, if you like, and got the better of my opponent and I was fortunate enough to get the goal."
Having now been at Blackpool for a number of weeks, the Canadian has admitted he's loving life by the seaside.
"So far, so good and I'm really enjoying my time here," he said.
"I think I started off quite slowly and it took me a bit of time to get used to the intensity of the Championship. It's a higher level to what I played in last season, but I'm really enjoying it so far.
"It's also a great group to be around, and it's one I'm hoping to learn a lot from this season."
