The evening went successfully for the only Lithuanian on the field, Vytautas Černiauskas, whose goal was not breached by the Lisbon "Sporting" players, while "Vaslui" defeated their opponents from Portugal 1-0 in front of their home crowd.
By earning three points, the Romanians kept the opportunity to advance among the top two teams of Group D and qualify for the tournament's round of sixteen.
