A one-man rearguard from Ante Vuković
There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Dragos Marin goes up and wins it — 7.54
A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.54 for the rest of it.

Viitorul make it 3 in a row
Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Viitorul have 3 straight wins of it.

Alexandru Mitrita in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Viitorul this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Viitorul supporters have found a favourite in Ante Vuković
There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 22-year-old it feels ownership of. Ante Vuković has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Dragos Marin sends Viitorul past FCSB
It finished 1‑0, and it was Dragos Marin’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Viitorul.

Jonathan Segura falls out with a teammate over standards
The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Razvan Mitrita runs at them all day
Successful dribbles: 16. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Viitorul pick somebody else ahead of André Rocha
There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.
In brief
