Conviction In 1980, Pârcălab was coach at Progresul Pucioasa in the third division. After a victory in the championship, Pârcălab took his players to a restaurant in order to celebrate, but after a few drinks, a conflict between him and the goalkeeper Nicolae Stancu started because of a waitress. They went to the bathroom to solve their problem and it is assumed that there Pârcălab killed Stancu by introducing a broomstick in his throat or by hitting him in the back of his head. Pârcălab was sentenced to three years in prison but got released after two. In the early 2000s, Pârcălab claimed he was innocent and that he was wrongfully convicted. Personal life Pârcălab's stepbrother was Nicolae Dumitrescu, who was also an international footballer and a manager.
