Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The throw-in from Tõnu Saue in the 6th minute of the game was unfortunally taken care of by Vistioara's Marius Bejgăneanu. The crowd rose to their feet as Gheorghe Codru kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Eliodor Chelbea. That made the score 1-0 in the 13 minute of play. The supporters of West.02 ™ booed when Vistioara was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 17 match minutes in a wonderful position. Traian Geoană didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 19th minute of the match Tõnu Saue shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Eliodor Chelbea showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. After a defensive mix-up in West.02 ™'s zone, Cătălin Cristocea stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Mircea Lepuș came out of the goal and Cătălin Cristocea tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 29th minute of the game Tõnu Saue made a throw-in which Remus Beca played forward. Cătălin Cristocea sent away a hard shot on goal in the 31st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Eliodor Chelbea made a fantastic save in the 45th minute, when Costică Postelnicescu sent off a good shot on target. Matei Măgherușan kicked well hit freekick during the 45th minute of the match. With an all-out effort, West.02 ™'s Eliodor Chelbea threw himself towards the right post 47 minutes into the match and grabbed hold of the ball from Remus Beca, which otherwise would have been placed in the net. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 1-0 at half-time.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Cătălin Cristocea stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Mircea Lepuș showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Cătălin Cristocea, who was totally free with the ball in the 60th minute. Cătălin Cristocea was extremely unlucky when he, in the 61st minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out. In the 65th minute, Costică Postelnicescu ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Eliodor Chelbea was frozen by the shot and now it was 2-0. In the 69th minute, Costică Postelnicescu left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The West.02 ™ fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 3-0. West.02 ™'s Sabin Nicorici was substituted for Luca Baran. After 75 played minutes Vistioara got a freekick which was hit by Traian Geoană. Cosmin Teofil fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 78th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Eliodor Chelbea having to interfere. Eliodor Chelbea made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Gheorghe Codru in the 79th minute of play. Vistioara's players left the field with heads hung low after losing a match that had been finely balanced throughout.
