Argeş Piteşti edge Gloria Bistriţa

Argeş Piteşti defeated Gloria Bistriţa 2-1 via Elias Bazzi's brace.

Piteşti took the lead seventeen minutes in as Bazzi struck a free kick in from eighteen metres. The Vampirii Albaştri fought back and three minutes past the half hour as veteran Dorel Zaharia redirected Liviu Băjenaru's long free kick in. Elias Bazzi came back three minutes past the hour with the winning strike as he dipped a free-kick from sixteen metres over the wall and into the net. Bistriţa's chance for a comeback were complicated with eighteen minutes left as they were forced to play a man down when Cristian Coroian was sent off with his second yellow-card.

Argeş Piteşti return to action on Saturday as they travel to face Farul Constanţa whilst Gloria Bistriţa welcome Pandurii Târgu Jiu.
