Everything could happen at the game between two tied teams. Both leader Brasov and bottom-ranked Rapid had identical 0-0 record. This time Brasov used a home court advantage and crushed the opponent from Bucuresti 80-56. It was a key game for the top position in the league. The game without a history. Brasov led from the first minutes and controlled entire game increasing their lead in each quarter. They dominated down low during the game scoring 50 of its points in the paint compared to Rapid's 26. They outrebounded Rapid 49-22 including a 36-12 advantage in defensive rebounds.

Four Brasov players scored in double figures. Brasov's coach Daniel Calancea felt very confident using 11 players and allowed the starting five to rest. Swingman Claudia Ene (178-88) came up with 22 points and power forward Raluca Ungureanu (180-80) added 7 points and 6 rebounds respectively for Rapid in the defeat. Brasov (1-0) keeps a position of league leader, which they share with 6 other teams. Rapid at the other side still closes the standings with one game lost. Brasov's next round opponent will be Sf.Gheorghe (#14) in Sfantu Gheorghe which should be another easy win for them. Rapid will play at home against Oradea (#12) in Oradea.
