Moldovan Super Liga – 13 July 2026

Dacia-Buiucani secured a valuable away victory at the CSR Orhei, defeating FC Milsami 1–0 in a tightly contested Moldovan Super Liga encounter. The only goal of the match arrived in the second half, lifting the visitors into the top half of the standings while denting Milsami’s pursuit of the league leaders.

Match Overview

Milsami entered the match as slight favourites, playing on home turf and boasting a strong recent run of form. However, Dacia-Buiucani proved resilient and organized, soaking up pressure and striking decisively when the opportunity arose. The home side dominated possession but lacked the cutting edge to break through a disciplined defensive block.

Key Moments

• 35th minute – Milsami thought they had taken the lead when forward Andrei Cojocaru tapped in from close range, but the goal was ruled out for offside after a VAR review.
• 63rd minute – Dacia-Buiucani’s left winger sprinted clear down the flank and delivered a low cross that was turned into the net by striker Alexandru Maxim – his sixth goal of the season.
• 78th minute – Milsami substitute Ion Guțu forced a fine save from Dacia goalkeeper Denis Rusu with a powerful header from a corner.
• 90+3rd minute – A desperate long‑ball scramble saw Milsami’s last chance cleared off the line by a covering defender.

Tactical Story

Milsami attempted to control the game through possession and wide overloads, but Dacia-Buiucani’s compact 4‑4‑2 shape frustrated their build‑up play. The visitors sat deep, invited pressure, and then broke with pace on the transition. Their winning goal came from exactly such a move: a quick turnover in midfield, a driving run, and a clinical finish. Milsami’s lack of a true target man became evident as crosses went unconverted.

Standout Players

Denis Rusu (Dacia-Buiucani) – The goalkeeper made several routine saves and one crucial stop from Guțu’s header to keep his clean sheet intact.

Alexandru Maxim (Dacia-Buiucani) – The striker’s poacher’s finish decided the match; he also worked tirelessly pressing Milsami’s defenders throughout the 90 minutes.

Vladimir Ambros (Milsami) – The central midfielder covered enormous ground and distributed well but lacked support in the final third.

Season Impact

The victory moves Dacia-Buiucani up to sixth place in the Moldovan Super Liga with 22 points from 14 matches, now just two points behind a European qualification spot. For Milsami, the defeat halts a three‑match unbeaten run and leaves them fourth on 25 points, seven adrift of leaders Sheriff Tiraspol. The result underlines the competitiveness of the league, where any slip can prove costly in the race for continental places.
