Dridif
Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Gigi Corbu kicked off to start the match. Zlasti's Octav Mircescu played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Daniel Racoviță in the 7th minute of play. In the 13th minute, Dridif's Daniel Racoviță ran free of his marker and smoothly shot the ball into the goal behind Octav Mircescu. Octav Mircescu yelled at his defense, as they had left him out to dry. 1-0. In the 24th minute, Remus Hârtopanu ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Octav Mircescu was frozen by the shot and now it was 2-0. After 28 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for Dridif! The audience was convinced that Sebastian Caciulescu's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Alin Hobjilă was relentless in the 31st minute of the game. Daniel Racoviță sent away a hard shot on goal in the 36th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. When Zlasti's Cristi Bourceanu in the 39th minute got a chance for a shot 39th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Dridif's goalie prevented a goal. Alin Hobjilă showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Gigi Corbu, who was totally free with the ball in the 40th minute. Daniel Racoviță received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 41st minute. Octav Mircescu tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 44th minute, Cristi Bourceanu 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.

The wind increased when Daniel Racoviță made the kick off in the second half. Alin Hobjilă showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Gigi Corbu in the 64th minute of the match. Remus Hârtopanu struck a weak shot in the 65th minute. Octav Mircescu didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Dridif. If Remus Hârtopanu had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 67th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 69th minute, Cazimir Zberea hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After some careless play in the Zlasti defense, Daniel Racoviță kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Octav Mircescu. The Zlasti fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Octav Mircescu should have stopped the shot. In the 86th minute, Cristi Bourceanu 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. 90 minutes into the match, Zlasti's goal looked a bit too open when Daniel Racoviță came free, but Octav Mircescu reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. If Cristi Bourceanu had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 94th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. It was no surprise that this one had ended in a win for the home team. Dridif had played much better football throughout.
