The referee ignored Schiaul's protests and gave Horea Cucerdean a yellow card for diving instead. When the referee blew for the end of the half the home team players were clearly happier, as they went in to the break leading 3-0.

Schiaul's supporters rose to their feet, but Mădălin Şoimaru was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post.

Ilie Mihele hit a great freekick 94 minutes into the match. Teodor Nacu showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Valer Crăciun, who was totally free with the ball in the 96th minute. It was no surprise that this one had ended in a win for the home team. Schiaul had played much better football throughout.
