Fairly good weather for football had drawn a crowd of 28843 to Nvidia Arena. Roberto Rigato was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Julio Lana and Niclas Kröll. Homalaii_Braila tactics involved an interesting 2-5-3 combination. The following players had been chosen: Sárosi - Karlsen, Lukács - Azemi, Dumitru, Magon, Pitter, Dulbecco - Anı, Frank, Temam.

morse started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. The following players took the field: Denktaş - Kolczak, Guldager, Hernández - Górkowski, Stănescu, Ion, Gherghe, Palade - Ramaccioni, Cătună.

A. Frank gave Homalaii_Braila the lead as he successfully challenged the guests' central defenders, then slotted the ball into the bottom corner, giving the keeper no chance. 1 - 0 A. Ramaccioni was the first to reach the corner kick, but his header was blocked by the keeper. However, morse's J. Guldager managed to get hold of the rebound and tucked the ball into the empty net. 1 - 1 S. Ion came close to putting the visiting team one up 30 minutes into the match, following a solo raid down the middle, but F. Sárosi managed to tip the ball to a corner. Homalaii_Braila took the lead 32 minutes into the game by 2 - 1, as A. Frank elegantly received a long range pass through the middle, finishing off with a half-volley shot just below the bar. Things were going to get worse for the visitors. V. Anı squirmed through their central defence after 33 minutes, increasing the lead to 3 - 1. A questionable free kick call just outside the home side's penalty area gave morse a chance at reducing the score 34 minutes into the match. In the end, the ball went wide. With 35 minutes played, P. Dulbecco of Homalaii_Braila fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. One of many good crosses from P. Dulbecco on the wing was received and skillfully taken care of by V. Anı, who scored for Homalaii_Braila. 4 - 1 Homalaii_Braila increased the lead as C. Dumitru struck to make the score 5 - 1 after an attack from the left left him unmarked in front of the keeper. After this, you could see that the players of Homalaii_Braila were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. Some things can only be learned through experience, and L. Gherghe should take his lesson to heart after nearly gifting Homalaii_Braila a goal with 40 minutes of the match played. The home team's fans were upset when, after 41 minutes, the visiting A. Ramaccioni broke through the central defence and kicked the ball past the keeper. 5 - 2 was the score. It was 5 - 2 at the break. Homalaii_Braila had most of the ball, with 54 percent of possession.

A. Frank wanted to play on, but the Homalaii_Braila coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 46 minutes into the game by V. Streulea. J. Karlsen was handed the Homalaii_Braila captain's armband. Homalaii_Braila's C. Dumitru saw his fine effort strike the top of the bar following some good work up the middle by his teammates after 55 minutes. G. Stănescu of morse was booked for kicking the ball away after the whistle. Coming in on the left, A. Ramaccioni did everything right to get a goal for morse after 58 minutes, but his finishing shot was stabbed clear by the keeper. 81 minutes in, an amazing pass from the left side resulted in a goal for the visitors, as C. Palade anticipated the through ball and scored, reducing the deficit to 5 - 3. Possession in this half belonged to Homalaii_Braila, who controlled the ball 55 percent of the time.

K. Pitter performed admirably for Homalaii_Braila. D. Azemi was a disappointment, however. Most important morse player was S. Ion. S. Górkowski turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 5 - 3.
