Dinamo secured a 2-0 victory against Sepsi OSK in an away match during the 11th round of the Superliga on Friday evening. The result allowed Dinamo to maintain their position at the top of the league standings.

Martin Pascual opened the scoring for the visitors with a header in the 24th minute. Alberto Soro added a second goal in the 36th minute, ensuring Dinamo held a two-goal lead going into halftime.

Reports indicated that Armstrong provided the assists for both goals scored by Pascual and Soro. The final score remained 2-0, confirming the three points for the Bucharest-based club.

The match faced an interruption in the 82nd minute when referee Viorel Flueran stopped play. This decision was made in response to xenophobic chants coming from the section occupied by Dinamo supporters.

Following the win, Dinamo leads the Superliga with 26 points after 11 rounds. Sepsi OSK remains in ninth place with 13 points following the defeat.

Andrei Nicolescu, the president of Dinamo, directed criticism toward Laszlo Dioszegi regarding the hospitality protocol at the stadium. Nicolescu claimed that guests received only bread in their boxes, expressing dissatisfaction with the treatment of visiting teams from Bucharest.

Attila Hadnagy denied these allegations, stating that Sepsi provides good food for guests. Despite the dispute over hospitality, Nicolescu congratulated Ovidiu Burcă for his work as the coach of Sepsi OSK.

Nicolescu also addressed the incident involving the fans, urging Dinamo supporters to avoid xenophobic chants. He called for unity among the supporters, describing the group as a family that should stand together without such behavior.
