Dinamo defeated UTA 2-0 in round 14 of the Romanian SuperLiga at Arena Națională. Danny Armstrong scored for Dinamo in the 44th minute. Diogo Pinto added a second goal in the 67th minute after receiving a pass from Alberto Soro.
UTA attempted to respond but failed to convert their chances. Marinos Tzionis and Alin Roman both hit the post for the visitors. Marius Coman also tried to equalize, but the Dinamo goalkeeper Bellarouch made the save.
Following the match, UTA midfielder Alin Roman criticized his team's approach. He stated that the players showed too much respect to Dinamo and did not play with sufficient intensity. Roman described the performance as entering the pitch on tiptoes rather than competing hard.
Roman also addressed the financial situation at UTA. He confirmed that the club faces financial problems. The midfielder explained that players receive their outstanding salaries only if the team remains in Liga 1. If UTA is relegated, the players will lose all their money.
Despite the financial concerns, Roman expressed optimism that the outstanding salaries would be paid provided the team avoids relegation. The result leaves UTA in tenth place in the standings with 18 points after 14 rounds.
Dinamo moved to first place in the SuperLiga table with 33 points. They sit one point above Universitatea Craiova following this victory in round 14.
