Player career

Ion Lăpuşneanu began his career at Venus Bucharest , for which he was used in the first team from 1926. In 1928 he moved to Banatul Timișoara , with whom he qualified for the semifinals of the Romanian football championship 1928/29 and for which he made his debut in the Romanian national team on September 15, 1929 against Bulgaria . Lăpuşneanu then moved to the then second-rate Bucharest club Sportul Studențesc , which still enabled him to participate in the 1930 World Cup in Uruguay . He played both games in his country there. For the second half of the 1931/32 season Lăpuşneanu returned to his home club Venus Bucharest, with whom he was able to win the Romanian championship in 1932 and 1934. After he was only used twice in the 1934/35 season , he moved to CFR Bucharest , which was renamed Rapid Bucharest a year later . In 1937 he left the club to play in Divizia B at Gloria CFR Galați .

Between 1929 and 1932 Lăpuşneanu was a total of 10 times in the goal of the Romanian national team. After a 5-0 defeat against Poland on October 2, 1932, he was no longer considered.

Coaching career

Lăpușneanu looked after the Romanian national team in three games from 1942 to 1943 before he was replaced by Emerich Vogl . After the end of the Second World War , he continued his activity in Divizia B at Sporting Club Piteşti , which was renamed Țesătoria Română Piteşti for a short time in the 1947/48 season . In the following season 1948/49 he trained the promoted Politehnica Timişoara in Divizia A and led the club, which had renamed itself in the preliminary round in CSU Timişoara, to keep the league. In 1950 he returned to Piteşti and took over his former club, which after a season under the name IT Piteşti was now called Flamura Roşie Piteşti . In the 1952 season he was the head coach of Flacăra Ploieşti , but rose at the end of the season. He later supervised the first division clubs Jiul Petroşani and Dinamo Piteşti before he worked as a coach from 1965 to 1966 at the Federația Română de Fotbal , whose honorary member he later became.
