Bákău thrashed Dumbrăvița 6-1 in the Liga II regular season, a result that leaves the visitors rooted to the bottom of the table while the hosts climb further clear of trouble. The match, played on 6 September 2026, was never in doubt after the first quarter-hour when P. Mitrica opened the scoring.
And here's the thing — the visitors thought they could get back into it. At the break, G. Gladun had been withdrawn and replaced by C.S. Gladun, but the damage was already done. Mitrica doubled the lead in the fifty-first minute, and by then Bákău were already looking at a comfortable margin.
The goals kept coming. P. Petre scored in the fifty-seventh, A. Seroni in the sixty-fifth, A. Pavel in the sixty-eighth, D. Luncasu in the seventy-seventh and D. Burlacu in the eighty-first. Bákău made four substitutions at the sixty-sixth minute, bringing on D. Mucuta, D. Dussaut, R. Moise and replacing Mitrica, who had already scored twice.
It was a display of clinical finishing. Bákău registered nine shots on target and scored six goals. Dumbrăvița managed just one shot on target all afternoon. The visitors had 51 per cent possession and 65 attacks, but to be fair, possession means little when your striker is frozen out.
By the end of the match, Bákău sat seventh with eleven points from six games — three wins, two draws and one defeat. Dumbrăvița remained in twentieth place with three points, having drawn three and lost three. The hosts had lost 2-1 to Universitatea Craiova on Wednesday, but this was a response.
The visitors had drawn with Steaua 2-2 on 23 August and lost 1-0 to CSM Râmnicu Vâlcea on 29 August. They had not won since the season began. Against a Bákău side that had won three of their last five, they were staring at the drop.
