Spectators: 153 (Terracing: 115, Seating: 35, VIP seats: 3) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Stelios Kyriakiou kicked off to start the match.

Thomás Linares was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-1. 15 minutes into the match, ASF BAIA MARE -MM-'s goal looked a bit too open when Pavel Pânzaru came free, but Thomás Linares reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. A collision led to Eantdit FK getting a freekick after 21 minutes play. Octavian Braica hit a great ball. In the 22nd minute of the match Ernest Petru shot from a long distance.

Through an outstanding action, after 43 minutes, Pang Yao successfully got his hands on the ball before it slid into the goal at the right post. Paulino Trigueiro's late challenge caught a ASF BAIA MARE -MM-'s player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Paulino Trigueiro helped the player get up and apologised. Paulino Trigueiro kicked well hit freekick during the 46th minute of the match. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-1 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Remus Vermeşan was the one to do the kick off. An unexpectedly hard shot by Eugen Lupea in the 53rd minute of play forced Eantdit FK's goalkeeper Pang Yao to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. When Stelios Kyriakiou came up free with the goalie in the 56th minute, the Eantdit FK fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Stelios Kyriakiou couldn't finish the play. Thomás Linares was out of position in the 64 minute of play, and Stelios Kyriakiou capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Stelios Kyriakiou really showed his touch with that goal: 0-2. In the 69th minute of the match, Stelios Kyriakiou got a very nice opportunity to score, but Thomás Linares was well-placed and pushed the ball away from the goal at the left post. Pang Yao took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Eugen Lupea, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. An unexpectedly hard shot by Gigi Brânzaș in the 71st minute of play forced Eantdit FK's goalkeeper Pang Yao to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Eantdit FK made a substitution. Panait Gherase replaced Octavian Braica. After 73 played minutes Eantdit FK got a freekick which was hit by Octavian Braica.

Pang Yao took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Zdzislaw Rekowski, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Leon Rik sent away a hard shot on goal in the 82nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Stelios Kyriakiou could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 84th minute of the match, but Thomás Linares made a huge save. Thomás Linares was a little too slow when Pavel Pânzaru got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 87th minute. The score was now 0-3. 91 minutes into the match, Eantdit FK's goal looked a bit too open when Remus Vermeşan came free, but Pang Yao reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. The supporters of ASF BAIA MARE -MM- booed when Eantdit FK was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 92 match minutes in a wonderful position. Panait Gherase didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 94th minute Remus Vermeşan shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Pang Yao saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After a defensive mix-up in Eantdit FK's zone, Eugen Lupea stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Pang Yao came out of the goal and Eugen Lupea tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Eantdit FK played a much better game than ASF BAIA MARE -MM- and deserved their victory. The ASF BAIA MARE -MM- players were clearly disappointed as they left the ground.
