In the UEFA Champions League Qualification match between FCSB and SS Virtus, played at the National Arena Bucharest, FCSB's dominant 4-0 victory was a masterclass in both individual brilliance and cohesive team play. The early goal by Alexandru Mihail Baluta, at the 19th minute mark, set the tone for the hosts, establishing immediate control and injecting momentum into the team. FCSB's second goal, assisted by Marius Stefanescu and finished by Malcom Edjouma, underlined their effective coordination and positioning, which repeatedly breached SS Virtus' defenses.

Statistically, FCSB's offensive prowess is undeniably highlighted by their 34 total shots, with an impressive 17 on target, compared to Virtus' solitary attempt on target. This disparity illustrates an overwhelming offensive presence by FCSB. Malcom Edjouma’s brace, the second goal arriving in the 35th minute, demonstrated his sharp finishing and capitalized on the weaknesses in the SS Virtus defense. The cohesive play culminated in the 71st-minute goal where David Popa’s assist for David Miculescu marked the fourth, closing the game effectively.

Defensively, FCSB remained unyielding, reflected in their 17 fouls which, while aggressive, were controlled enough to avoid bookings. Contrastingly, SS Virtus could not translate any of their limited attempts into meaningful threats, hindered further by Ivan Buonocunto's yellow card in the second half, which added to their disciplinary concerns. SS Virtus' inability to win any corner kicks compared to FCSB's eight exemplifies the territorial dominance that FCSB maintained throughout the match.

The individual performances and team synergy of FCSB evidently contributed to their victory. The two assists, especially the visionary playoff by David Popa, showcased the depth and versatility in FCSB's squad. Conversely, SS Virtus' 9 fouls and 2 offsides could not disturb the tempo FCSB set, indicating a lack of strategic coherence in their gameplay, making it a comprehensive triumph for FCSB without meaningful response from the visitors.
