But to his dismay, Niki Lauda quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-1. 15 minutes into the match, RIVER's goal looked a bit too open when Ovidiu Dobrica came free, but Marcial Lordi reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Michael Tan hit a great freekick 18 minutes into the match. Wu Li Zhi scored 0-3 in the 31st match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Dinu Dabija, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Dinu Dabija showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Niki Lauda, who was totally free with the ball in the 34th minute. Dinu Dabija made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Niki Lauda in the 40th minute of play.

In the 55th minute Ovidiu Dobrica shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Marcial Lordi saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

Dinu Dabija didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Niki Lauda went, in the 60th minute, to the upper right corner, 1-4 was the resulting score. RIVER's Pipo Benedetto was substituted for Wu Li Zhi. Niki Lauda received a nice pass, split the defenders, and ran untouched towards the goal. Dinu Dabija came out and tried to block the shot, but Niki Lauda slotted it home off the left post making it 1-5 in the 65th minute. Svante Vase spun around in front of the goal 72 minutes in the game, and got away a shot that, to his disappointment, went to the left of RIVER's goal. G16 ⚽️NEGRELE⚽️'s Andrei Pintea was substituted for Michael Tan. The audience thought a goal was coming when Pipo Benedetto got free with Dinu Dabija in the 78th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. After 85 minutes, Zbigniew Okropny mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the G16 ⚽️NEGRELE⚽️ and the RIVER players grew even worse after the yellow card. A collision led to G16 ⚽️NEGRELE⚽️ getting a freekick after 85 minutes play. Zbigniew Okropny hit a great ball. 86 minutes into the match, G16 ⚽️NEGRELE⚽️'s goal looked a bit too open when Domingo Remigio came free, but Dinu Dabija reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Isaac Nuxila hit a great freekick 87 minutes into the match. If Andrei Pintea had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 89th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.
