In this fiercely contested Romanian Cup match between FC Bihor Oradea and FC Arges, tension was high and the competition riveting. FC Bihor Oradea emerged as the triumphant side, scoring one goal and playing an imposing game with a final scoreline of 1-0.

The standout moment of the match was certainly the goal scored by the home team at the early stages of the second half (51:38). This game-changer highlighted FC Bihor Oradea's aggressive game play that remained persistent throughout the match.

However, that's not to downplay the competitive spirit of FC Arges, which manifested through the significant number of corner kicks they managed to secure. They led in this regard with a total of 7 corner kicks compared to FC Bihor Oradea's 4. However, they failed to convert these set-piece opportunities into goals, resulting in a missed opportunity for the away team.

Moving onto yellow cards, it was a heated match with a total of 7 yellow cards on the pitch, noticeably more for the home team (4) than the away team (3). The home team received two yellow cards in the first half itself which set a more serious tone for the match early on. In the second half, both teams faced a flurry of yellow cards - away team with a total of three, and home team adding two to their count.

Offside calls were also notable. FC Bihor Oradea was flagged offside three times, indicating a possible eagerness to push forward, whilst FC Arges only had two offsides throughout the game. Despite this setback, FC Bihor Oradea maintained their control of the game, demonstrating tactical astuteness and defensive discipline.

This match also exhibited excellent work from the goalkeepers at both ends given the high corner kicks and zero off-target shots but lacked the precise number of shots on target, goalkeeper saves, or total shots, making it challenging to comment further on their performances.

In conclusion, this game was won in the details. FC Bihor Oradea's decisive goal in the early moments of the second half, its defensive fortitude despite getting flagged offside thrice, and the ability to handle pressure even after receiving more yellow cards were the impactful factors leading to their victory. FC Arges’ inability to exploit set-piece situations and fewer offences were pivotal in their defeat.

Even though the teams were neck-and-neck for a significant part of the game, the more disciplined and strategically sound performance of FC Bihor Oradea proved to be the key difference between the two sides.
