The first dangerous opportunity of the match came only in the 33rd minute, through Bustea, who headed back a ball centered from 35 meters, but Aioani retained. Benga also tried to score with his head, but he sent the ball just past the rival goal.
Denis Rusu scored the only goal of the game in the 52nd minute, after he defeated Aioani with a shot from the area, in the long corner. Ursu was able to double the hosts’ lead, but the Târgoviște goalkeeper came out excellent and blocked the host’s seventh.
