FC Milsami 2-1 FC Balti: Late Drama Secures Super Liga Victory

FC Milsami edged out FC Balti 2-1 in a pulsating Moldovan Super Liga encounter at the CSR Orhei on Sunday night. The home side came from behind to snatch all three points with a stoppage-time winner, keeping pace with the league leaders in a tightly contested title race.

Match Overview

Both teams entered the match in mid-table, but with ambitions of climbing toward European qualification spots. The first half was a cagey affair, with few clear openings. Balti struck first against the run of play, but Milsami responded with character after the interval, turning the game around in the final stages.

Key Moments

• 38' – Goal (Balti): Alexandru Onica fired a low drive from 20 yards that took a deflection past the Milsami goalkeeper.
• 62' – Goal (Milsami): Radu Rogac equalised with a towering header from a corner, sparking the home crowd into life.
• 90+4' – Goal (Milsami): Substitute Eugeniu Rebenja latched onto a loose ball inside the box and smashed home the winner to send the stadium into raptures.

Tactical Story

Milsami dominated possession (62%) but struggled to break down a compact Balti defence in the first half. Manager Igor Picus changed shape to a 4-2-3-1 after the break, pushing full-backs higher and adding an extra attacker. Balti dropped deeper after scoring, a decision that proved costly as Milsami’s set-piece threat and late pressure overwhelmed them. The winning goal came from a defensive error, with Balti failing to clear a cross.

Standout Player

Radu Rogac was a colossus at both ends. The centre-back scored the equaliser and made several crucial clearances to keep his side in the game. His leadership at the back was instrumental in Milsami’s recovery.

What It Means

Milsami move up to fourth in the Super Liga table, just two points behind the leaders, while Balti remain seventh. The result gives Milsami momentum ahead of a tricky run of fixtures against top-half sides.
