CSM Slatina and CSA Steaua Bucuresti delivered a balanced game that ended in a 1-1 draw, reflecting the tightly contested nature both teams displayed. CSM Slatina took the lead with an early goal in the first half, capitalizing on some disorganization in the Steaua defense. Steaua Bucuresti equalized in the second half, demonstrating resilience and improved coordination after halftime adjustments to increase their attacking presence.

Statistically, Steaua Bucuresti dominated corner kicks, earning 10 compared to Slatina’s 2, which indicates a higher offensive pressure and territorial advantage. However, this wasn't fully capitalized upon due to solid defensive work by Slatina, who managed to limit clear goal-scoring opportunities despite fewer set-piece chances. The inability of Steaua to convert more of these corners into goals highlighted a gap in their set-piece execution and effectiveness against a well-drilled Slatina backline.

In terms of discipline and impacts on momentum, Slatina's three yellow cards, two of which came late in the match, suggested a physically aggressive approach as they worked to preserve their position. This aggressive play resulted in multiple cautions, which could have risked a red card and potential loss. Conversely, Steaua's later yellow cards suggested frustration as they struggled to find a winning goal. The equal number of bookings revealed the game's competitive intensity, contributing to the finely poised finish.
