Gloria Bistrita claim away win at Lindab Stefanesti

A.C.F. Gloria Bistrita secured a hard-earned 2-1 victory over Lindab Stefanesti in Romanian Liga II on 5 September 2026. The away side produced a composed and effective performance at the 16:00 kickoff to leave with all three points.

Lindab Stefanesti made the brighter start and used the home advantage to test Gloria Bistrita’s early organisation. Their efforts were rewarded when they found the net to take the lead, giving the hosts a platform to control the tempo. Gloria Bistrita, however, kept their composure and gradually worked their way back into the match. Patient passing and a stronger physical presence in midfield allowed the visitors to gain a foothold before the interval.

Gloria Bistrita turn the match around

The second half belonged largely to Gloria Bistrita, who increased their intensity and pushed Lindab Stefanesti deeper into their own half. The equaliser came from a well-executed set-piece situation, and the momentum shifted decisively. Gloria Bistrita continued to press and produced a second goal to complete the turnaround, leaving the home side with too much to do in the closing minutes.

Match summary

• Lindab Stefanesti’s bright start proved insufficient as the away side grew stronger with time.
• Gloria Bistrita’s second-half display was marked by good movement and an effective pressing game.
• The three points give Gloria Bistrita early-season momentum in the Liga II table.

The defeat will frustrate Lindab Stefanesti, particularly after taking the lead, but they will look to correct their defensive issues ahead of the next round. Gloria Bistrita, meanwhile, will be pleased with the resilience shown to overturn the scoreline away from home.
