Spectators: 40 (Terracing: 31, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Antal Valentin kicked off to start the match.

Gigel Tilea was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-1. Fodor Daniel didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Marin Giubelean went, in the 11th minute, to the upper right corner, 1-1 was the resulting score.

In the 24th minute, Takacs Tibor got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. After some careless play in the Hungary defense, Marin Giubelean kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Fodor Daniel. The Hungary fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Fodor Daniel should have stopped the shot. Marin Giubelean received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 34th minute. Fodor Daniel tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 37th minute, Alex Nicolae hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After having played for 38 minutes, Hegedus Henrik managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Hungary's supporters crossed their fingers, but Hegedus Henrik was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. In the 46th minute Marin Giubelean shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Fodor Daniel saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Marin Giubelean stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Takacs Tibor was extremely unlucky when he, in the 55th minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out. 57 minutes into the match, Hungary's goal looked a bit too open when Marin Giubelean came free, but Fodor Daniel reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 58 minutes into the game, Major Barna cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 2-2. Gigel Tilea was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. If Antal Valentin had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 61st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Marin Giubelean received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 65th minute. Fodor Daniel tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Academia Rio's Alin Năsturel was substituted for Doru Dobrinescu.
