The Superliga clash on 17 May 2025 between FCSB and Universitatea Craiova ended in a narrow 1-0 victory for the home side. FCSB secured the win with an early goal in the 19th minute. The first half saw FCSB establishing control and setting the tempo with both their aggressive play and strong defensive structures. The goal came during a period of sustained pressure, underlined by a higher number of fouls, with FCSB committing 13 fouls to Craiova's 6, indicating their physical approach to disrupting Craiova's flow.

Craiova's strategy relied on maximizing their set-piece opportunities, capitalizing with a higher number of corner kicks, totaling six to FCSB’s four. However, their inability to convert these into goal-scoring chances ultimately highlighted a lack of precision in critical moments. The visitors struggled to penetrate FCSB's defensive lines, evidenced by their inability to register a goal, despite their intent in the second half. Defensive solidity was a cornerstone for FCSB, preventing Craiova from capitalizing on their offensive attempts.

Discipline was an underlying issue throughout the match, with the two teams collecting a combined total of eight yellow cards. FCSB's aggression was clear, resulting in five yellow cards, yet they maintained composure to avoid red cards, which could have shifted the dynamic drastically. Craiova's three yellow cards reflected their attempts to retaliate and counter FCSB's physicality, but they lacked efficiency in breaking down FCSB’s shield. The defensive resilience and well-timed interceptions were crucial, allowing FCSB to see the game through to a 1-0 victory, despite their aggressive play almost costing them discipline-wise.
