Petre Libardi

Club career Libardi was born on 27 August 1942 in Câmpulung-Muscel and began playing football at Minerul Câmpulung. He went for a short period to Dinamo Pitești, but then returned to Minerul. His first performance with The Miners was reaching the 1972 Cupa României final, where coach Eugen Iordache used him the entire match in the eventual 2–0 loss to Rapid București. Libardi eventually won the competition two years later after a 4–2 victory against Politehnica Timișoara in the 1974 final, as coach Traian Ivănescu used him the full 90 minutes, helping Jiul win its first trophy. Afterwards he played in both legs against Dundee United in the first round of the 1974–75 European Cup Winners' Cup which was lost with 3–2 on aggregate. In May 1975, during a Jiul – Politehnica Iași home game, the wooden stand of the stadium started to burn due to a cigarette thrown into a pile of seed husks. Libardi, along with teammates Gogu Tonca and Andrei Stocker jumped in to help the firefighters extinguish the fire. His second game was also a friendly which ended in a 0–0 draw against Poland. He also served as Jiul's president.
