Copăcianu was shown a yellow card after 10 minutes for slicing down an opponent. I. Omelianovitch was ever so close to scoring after an excellent corner was beautifully flicked on by P. Chalot, but the ball bounced off the post to safety. M. Haro's lack of experience almost gave Pitesti a goal after 29 minutes, but the shot went right into the keeper's arms. A penalty was awarded after 30 minutes, and G. Biesma made the most of his chance to put mama up by another goal. 0 - 2 for the visitors. Pitesti's C. Burac got himself booked for a foul. After 37 minutes, a mistake by the home side's left defence allowed G. Biesma to get through. He outclassed the home side's keeper, adding another goal for the visitors. 0 - 3. That was his third goal of the match - a hat trick for G. Biesma. With 39 minutes played, C. Buftea of Pitesti fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. It was 0 - 3 at the break. mama enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 66 percent of possession.

Ciupek made it through the home team's defence on the right hand side 49 minutes into the match. After rounding the keeper, he only had to place the ball in the unguarded goal when a defender slid in and cleared the ball off the line. M. Aşir was, after 54 minutes, almost able to extend the visitors' lead with a well placed diving header after the ball had looped into the centre, but the home side's keeper T. Dan made the save. mama increased their lead after 74 minutes when M. Aşir broke through on the right, upping the score to 0 - 4, much to the home crowd's dismay.

Avornicesei had to watch the rest of the game from the sidelines, after twisting his ankle with 80 minutes having been played. M. Lawson was the replacement. A well placed corner kick from C. Podaru was followed by I. Dobó's hard but accurate header. The well executed routine resulted in a goal for Pitesti, the score now 1 - 4. The home crowd was not impressed when B. Ciupek came in from the right, shooting hard to score after 83 minutes. mama were now up 1 - 5. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by mama, with 71 percent of the ball.
