ancuta 0 - 3 GalaxyX (380982118)

Weather conditions were fairly good for football, and ancuta Arena saw a crowd turnout of 7763. Nikolaj Agger Pedersen was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Olexiy Berezyuk and Niklas Rothen. A 4-4-2 alignment was the formation of choice for ancuta. Starters: Dănciulescu - Fuisz, Lotrean, Vlad, Nejloveanu - Cântea, Bozântan, Erbaşu, Baciu - Zănoagă, Kelemen.

GalaxyX decided to use a 4-4-2 set up. They fielded: Florescu - Simuţ, Cojoc, Şerbănoiu, Ipate - Manea, Cebotaru, Györki, Balmuş - Clătici, Mărăşescu.

Today, GalaxyX's strategy involved concentrating on the flanks for their attacks. L. Erbaşu was ever so close to scoring after an excellent corner was beautifully flicked on by M. Zănoagă, but the ball bounced off the post to safety. An opportunity to take the lead after 16 minutes was wasted as GalaxyX's F. Manea missed a penalty, firing wide of the mark. After 28 minutes ancuta tried to exploit their counterattacking skills, unfortunately, L. Erbaşu's shot sailed wide after his break down the right. With 30 minutes gone, GalaxyX had a free kick in a decent position. Despite this being a great chance for a shot, they tried a cheeky move intended to bypass the defence. However, A. Şerbănoiu did not manage to connect with it cleanly and the ball went out. 0 - 0 was the score after the first half. GalaxyX enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 62 percent of possession.

Players in GalaxyX heard their coach's words ringing in their ears and steered their central attacks to the wings instead. GalaxyX's R. Ipate could have put the guests one up after 69 minutes after chasing a through ball from the right, but C. Dănciulescu was as fast as a snake, grabbing the ball from under his nose. After the game, the most discussed event will probably be the penalty given after 72 minutes that gave the visitors the 0 - 1 lead. Despite the controversy, F. Manea struck home the penalty, as cool as anything. M. Cojoc of GalaxyX received a yellow card after 77 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. GalaxyX's N. Balmuş was dominating his wing and kept sending fine balls into the opposition's box - M. Mărăşescu managed to volley one of them into the net to make it 0 - 2 after 78 minutes. L. Simuţ increased the visitors' lead by putting a volley away after a pass from the right. 0 - 3. GalaxyX claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 63 percent.

The most dominating ancuta player was without a doubt C. Vlad. However, C. Dănciulescu made a disastrous appearance. Most important GalaxyX player was D. Cebotaru. F. Manea on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 0 - 3.
