  • Live Commentary

    Time:90'
    • Steaua Bucharest
    • Slavia Praha
    • 90+2' And it's all over! 1-1 the final score. It's a fair reflection on the game, but Steaua will be disappointed not to have killed the game when they had the chance.
    • 90' Vasilica Cristocea comes on for Badea. There will be two minutes of injury time!
    • 88' Chance for Steaua! Surdu cuts in from the right and shoots, but the ball bounces harmlessly wide.
    • 85' Penalty shout for Steaua! Neaga goes down under a challenge from Sourek, but the ref awards a goal kick!
    • 78' GOAL! 1-1! Zdenek Senkerik meets a right-wing cross with a powerful header that flies past Robinson Zapata! Now, can either side find a winner?!
    • 76' Another change for the home side. Marius Croituru is replaced by Romeo Surdu. Tomas Necid enters the fray for the visitors.
    • 73' Ondrej Sourek goes into the book for a wild challenge on Neaga, who, it has to be said, made a bit of a meal of it. The visitors are getting increasingly frustrated here.
    • 71' Matej Krajcik is shown the yellow card after clashing with Mihai Nesu.
    • 65' Substitution for Steaua. Eric Bicfalvi comes on for Florin Lovin.
    • 61' Change for Slavia Prague. Ladislav Volesak is replaced by Sourek Ondrej.
    • 58' There are a few tasty challenges flying around here. Slavia Prague obviously weren't expecting to find themselves up against it. Referee Alain Hamer will have to keep a close eye on things.
    • 52' David Hubacek goes into the book after clumsily felling Croitoru.
    • 46' The second half begins, and Badea is unlucky not to win a corner after going on the attack down the left.
    • 45+1' The referee's whistle brings an end to the first period. Steaua are good value for their lead, but may come to rue missing some good opportunities to extend it.
    • 44' Marius Croituru goes into the book for hacking down Daniel Pudil.
    • 38' Steaua are playing some lovely stuff here. Robinson Zapata has just produced what must be a contender for Most Nonchalant Pass Of The Season By A Goal-keeper.
    • 34' What a save! A deep cross from Dica finds Badea unmarked at the back post, but his close-range volley is somehow deflected over by Vaniak!
    • 29' It's almost two! Marius Croitoru finds space on the right and pulls the ball back to Adrian Neaga, but his first touch is a little heavy and he has to stretch to get in a shot which goes just wide.
    • 27' Chance for Steaua! Ovidiu Petre takes aim from the edge of the box, but his well-struck shot goes inches over!
    • 26' Michal Svec lands awkwardly after challenging for a high ball, and is now receiving treatment.
    • 23' Steaua are pressing for a second. A succession of dangerous crosses are aimed into Slavia Prague's box, but Vaniak's goal survives.
    • 15' The home side are playing with real enterprise here. Slavia Prague are struggling to get out of their own half!
    • 12' GOAL! 1-0 Steaua! And it's not pretty! Valentin Badea chases onto a through-ball from Nicolae Dica, the two centre halves converge on him on the edge of the six yard box, and from the resulting collision the ball trickles into the net, with Vaniak diving the other way! That might just go down as an own goal.
    • 8' The ball's in the back of the net! But it's offside. Slavia Prague 'keeper Martin Vaniak parries a long-range shot, but the man who tucks in the rebound is yards offside.
    • 5' Steaua are on the attack in the opening stages, but their progress is halted by the linesman's flag.
    • 1' The first half gets underway! Steaua Bucharest are sporting their traditional red and blue stripes, while the visitors are in all-white.
    • - Steaua Bucharest are without winger Banel Nicolita, but forward Victoras Iacob has overcome a back injury to start. The visitors are missing former Liverpool man Vladimir Smicer, who has a knee injury, and must also do without Stanislav Vlcek.
