  • Dinamo Bucuresti were never in trouble, and from a 4:1 start, they were in complete control in a dominant display.

No matter whether Chekhovskie medvedi defended in a 6-0 or 5-1 formation, the inventive Dinamo attack had no real trouble creating plenty of scoring opportunities.

In the Dinamo goal, Saeid Heidarirad produced another brilliant performance, which also contributed to the visitors having a few eight-goal leads in the first half.

Dinamo continued their dominance after the break, and the away team managed to increase their lead to 11 goals several times during the last 30 minutes, before they finally took a ten-goal lead at the end.

While Dinamo are on top of the group with seven points after their first four games, Chekhov are far away from a play-off position, staying on only two points.

Stefan Constantin, the Dinamo Bucuresti coach, said after the game, "Today we played a strong match. We were able to block the back line of the Chekhov team and overcome their 5-1 defence" While his player, Razvan Gavriloaia, explained how their tactical analysis paid off, "We watched the previous home match in Chekhov, where the line played well. Therefore, we tried to block the line players and we succeeded. Today was a good day for us."

On the losing bench, Vladimir Maksimov, was not holding back his annoyance, "Our defence 5:1 didn’t work today and we switched to another tactic of the game. But there was insufficient realisation in the attack and stupid losses. All this became the reason for such bad final result for us.
