Iskra-Stal - FC Dacia 1-4: match overview

The Yellow Wolves made the best present for Igor Dobrovolskiy's birthday by capturing an impressive 4-1 win over Iskra-Stal Rîbniţa.

The Chişinău side enjoyed overwhelming possession in the first half but did not manage to finish off attacks for some reason. Alexandru Onica wasted the best first-half chance by hitting the post.

Slaven Stjepanović earned a penalty after half-time and Maxim Mihaliov converted it. A few minutes later, the former Iskra-Stal player doubled the lead of FC Dacia.

The hosts managed to pull one goal back, creating an illusion of struggle. However, all hopes за the Rîbniţa side where shattered when Ghenadie Orbu came on at the end of the game. Orbu had a one-on-one opportunity in the 87th minute and provided an assist to Miloš Krkotic who placed the ball in. The same situation happened a few minutes later -  Orbu provided an assist to Matvey Boba - 1-4.
