“Aurelian Chițu breaks the deadlock with opening goal for Hermannstadt”
Pivotal“Cristian Neguț seals victory with second goal amid chaotic scenes”
Hermannstadt secured a comfortable 2-0 victory over Otelul in what became a one-sided affair after the hosts were reduced to nine men. The turning point came just before halftime when Otelul's Ștefan Bană received his second yellow card for a reckless foul, leaving his side to battle with ten men for the entire second half. Hermannstadt capitalized on their numerical advantage in the 63rd minute through Aurelian Chițu's opener, before Diego Živulić's red card for Otelul in the 78th minute effectively killed the contest. Cristian Neguț sealed the victory five minutes from time, with Paul Iacob's violent conduct dismissal capping off a miserable afternoon for the home side.
