Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-1 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

In the 52nd match minute, FC Acatar was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Nicu Vornicu to maneuver through the defense. Ekhemos Kezdoglou made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Yang Wei in the 55th minute of play. 56 minutes into the match, FC BaLiSt's goal looked a bit too open when Constantin Bâlea came free, but Chi Tzalov reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

When Constantin Bâlea came up free with the goalie in the 81st minute, the FC Acatar fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Constantin Bâlea couldn't finish the play. 87 minutes into the game, Nicu Vornicu cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 2-1. Chi Tzalov was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. After 91 played minutes FC BaLiSt got a freekick which was hit by Cristian Gârniceanu. If Nicu Vornicu had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 92nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The FC Acatar support was delighted with a win in a match that could easily have ended differently.
