Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play.

Ciprian Brănescu recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 7th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Costică Boerescu didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Iacob Porumboiu went, in the 17th minute, to the upper right corner, 0-1 was the resulting score. Nexibus Bucuresti's Klaas Bijl proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 20th minute of the match, managed to save Nexibus Bucuresti from getting a goal against them. Nexibus Bucuresti were awarded a corner in the 25th minute after Baiuti SC's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. Nae Pană took the corner.

In the 27th match minute, Nexibus Bucuresti was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Silviu Coșeriu to maneuver through the defense. Rareș Harbuz's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Klaas Bijl read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 28th minute of play.

An unexpectedly hard shot by Ciprian Brănescu in the 42nd minute of play forced Baiuti SC's goalkeeper Costică Boerescu to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

The wind increased when Claudiu Voica made the kick off in the second half. When Iosif Zbanţ fell near the penalty area in the 57th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick.
