The online search interest of the Romanian public in the last 24 hours has mainly focused on football, especially on the major European club confrontations.
Elite competitions in European football have been in the spotlight, and matches in the Champions League such as FC Barcelona – Olympiacos FC have generated particular interest; Barcelona won 6-1, thanks to a hat-trick by Fermín López and a double by Marcus Rashford, while the elimination of Santiago Hezze sparked controversy regarding the refereeing.
In the same vein, the match between Paris Saint-Germain and Bayer Leverkusen, in which PSG won 7-2 away, also attracts a lot of attention, especially in light of the eliminations on the field and the performance of the French team in the context of the Champions League.
Other matches that generated interest were PSV – Napoli, Union Saint-Gilloise – Inter, Villareal – Man City, as well as the UEFA Champions League competition in general.
For the audience in Romania, these matches evidently capture attention, which explains a large accumulation of terms associated with European teams, top scorers, scores, and controversial plays.
In the area of public figures, the name of Carla Bruni has risen in trends after her husband, Nicolas Sarkozy, left their residence in Paris to be incarcerated at La Santé prison; images of the artist visibly emotionally affected amplified the echo in the Romanian press and in searches. Actor Doru Octavian Dumitru was urgently transported to the hospital just before the scheduled performance of "Globariciu" in Onești; the performance was postponed, and the family sent a message to the public, which triggered a wave of searches about his condition.
In the area of security, the public followed the Nova Post case: SRI announced the thwarting of a sabotage attempt attributed to Russia at the company's headquarters in Bucharest, with details about the perpetrators quickly picked up by the media and attracting the attention of internet users.
A distinct theme is that of daylight saving time ("the hour of return"), recorded as a subject of current interest in searches.
