CS Mioveni, another step to League 2

CS Mioveni has lost 5 in a row in the play-outs and is one step away from relegation to the second league.

Nicolae Dike’s men lost away to the University of Cluj and continue to remain goalless in this part of the season.

Transylvania controlled the contest from end to end with over 18 chances to score, but the home team’s goal did not come until the second half.
