Calimanesti
Spectators: 7506 (Terracing: 5630, Seating: 1726, VIP seats: 150) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Gigel Jurca got the match started through his kick off. The audience was convinced that Marian Buta's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Emanuel Iacob was relentless in the 5th minute of the game. In the 7th minute there was a penalty for Movilele. Franco Nero stepped forward and shot the ball to the right of a diving Emanuel Iacob. 0-1. Emanuel Iacob showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Marian Buta, who was totally free with the ball in the 10th minute. The audience thought a goal was coming when Iurie Sorin got free with Eduard Pătrașcu in the 12th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Movilele's Eduard Pătrașcu played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Mihail Cuculeanu in the 14th minute of play. Movilele's Marian Buta got a good chance for a goal in the 17th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. In the 21st minute, Avram Zgabei hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Emanuel Iacob stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Marian Buta's shot from short distance in the 26th minute. In the 31st minute, Gigel Jurca hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 35 minutes into the match, Iurie Sorin notched a goal, 1-1, to the right of Movilele's Eduard Pătrașcu. Eduard Pătrașcu was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. After some fancy dribbling in the 38th minute, Sebastian Pătrașcu managed to get in a good position for a shot. Movilele's supporters rose to their feet, but Sebastian Pătrașcu was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Emanuel Iacob breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After a defensive mix-up in Calimanesti's zone, Marian Buta stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Emanuel Iacob came out of the goal and Marian Buta tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Calistrat Chiriac fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 41st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Emanuel Iacob having to interfere. 44 minutes into the match, Movilele's goal looked a bit too open when Mihail Cuculeanu came free, but Eduard Pătrașcu reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Calistrat Chiriac was astounded when the referee showed him the red card after a seemingly innocent challenge, 46 minutes into the match. In the 45th minute, one of Movilele:s players had the ball in front of the goal but got pushed and fell. The referee felt it was an obvious case and blew a penalty for Movilele. 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 2-1.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Sebastian Pătrașcu to strike the kick off in the second half. Movilele's Sebastian Pătrașcu got a good chance for a goal in the 60th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. If Sebastian Pătrașcu had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 63rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a rather tough play, Movilele's Marius Pătrașcu got a free kick in the 70th minute. If Sebastian Pătrașcu had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 74th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Sebastian Pătrașcu was extremely unlucky when he, in the 81st minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out. A collision led to Calimanesti getting a freekick after 84 minutes play. Mihai Balint hit a great ball. Emanuel Iacob showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Marian Buta, who was totally free with the ball in the 87th minute. Franco Nero struck a weak shot in the 90th minute. Emanuel Iacob didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Movilele. Movilele's supporters stood up full of expectation in the 95th minute of the game, when Franco Nero after an extraordinary solo performance found himself with a golden opportunity in front of Calimanesti's goal. Franco Nero was unfortunally a little to anxious and the ball went outside the goal. Radu Drumeș charged in rather forcefully in the 98th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Radu Drumeș the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. In the 97th minute, one of Calimanesti:s players had the ball in front of the goal but got pushed and fell. The referee felt it was an obvious case and blew a penalty for Calimanesti.
