Máximo Raponi was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Constantin Igna and Adonis Daniel. Everyone was excited about the upcoming Iaşi derby and the crowd was divided evenly.

HEMATOM tactics involved an interesting 3-4-3 combination. Lineup: Dohot - Smulders, Laganà, Papini - Pajuelo, Alexe, Jipa, Wegener - Ardistio, Cerutti, Kotte.

A mistake by the home side's central defence after 5 minutes allowed L. Kotte to score for HEMATOM. The scoreboard now read 0 - 1. With 7 minutes played, a quick exchange of passes on the left wing freed M. Cerutti of HEMATOM to slip through the defence and score another goal for the visitors. That made the score 0 - 2. The visitors' E. Wegener took advantage of a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and centre backs 17 minutes into the match. 0 - 3 for HEMATOM. After 22 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for I. Jipa who increased HEMATOM's lead to 0 - 4. The players of HEMATOM now seemed to think the job was done and acted more defensively, just waiting for the ref to blow the final whistle. 0 - 4 was the score after the first half. HEMATOM enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 87 percent of possession.

T. Dohot wanted to play on, but the HEMATOM coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 46 minutes into the game by G. Ionescu. The coach of HEMATOM was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 46 minutes, M. Ambruş came on for E. Wegener. The HEMATOM players could smell victory in the air. M. Cerutti wasn't in a hurry to leave the field as he was substituted for J. Suazo after 46 minutes. Given a free kick close to the byline, HEMATOM tried a move that loyal fans may recognise from training. A pass to the side pulled the defence out of position which let L. Kotte slip through on goal. He didn't have to break his stride, and slipped the ball past the keeper to make it 0 - 5, 53 minutes into the game. In the lead, HEMATOM adjusted their style of play with 55 minutes gone. After a short break after 55 minutes, HEMATOM seemed to change their tactical approach a bit. The home crowd was not impressed when L. Kotte came in from the right, shooting hard to score after 85 minutes. HEMATOM were now up 0 - 6. This third goal completed a hattrick for L. Kotte. A drive down the left side allowed J. Suazo to get in close and score another goal for HEMATOM after 87 minutes, taking the score to 0 - 7. After 87 minutes, HEMATOM's R. Pajuelo burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 0 - 8. Cotonoaga's Ş. Tomoioagă was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 87 minutes. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by HEMATOM, with 87 percent of the ball.

The most dominating Cotonoaga player was without a doubt Ş. Tomoioagă. However, J. Gângioveanu made a disastrous appearance. HEMATOM's best player was R. Pajuelo. On the other hand, G. Ionescu's play was disheartening. The match ends 0 - 8.
