Daniel Paraschiv struck first for Hermannstadt in the 36th minute on a feed from Ionuț Stoica, but Denis Ciobotariu got the equalizer for Sepsi in the 75th minute Finally they completed the comback in the 86th minute on a goal by Pavol Šafranko to cap off a wild match. Sepsi is looking for direction having 4 win and 3 losses in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 1st placed SSC Farul, recorded a 2-0 shutout win against UTA Arad. Denis Alibec struck first for SSC Farul in the 19th minute on a penalty kick, then Carlo Casap added another in the 90th minute In the end, UTA Arad was frustrated by SSC Farul’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. SSC Farul ended the match with the shutout victory. With 21 points in their last 10 matches SSC Farul should be reasonably happy with their performance.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 1 win apiece.
