Tactical Masterclass: FCSB’s Strategic Triumph Over Farul Constanța

In a captivating display of tactical acumen and strategic execution, FCSB emerged victorious with a 2-1 win against Farul Constanța in the riveting encounter on November 30, 2025. Despite an early setback with Adrian Pitu's goal for Farul Constanța in the 14th minute, FCSB's response was a testament to their resilience and tactical prowess.

FCSB's head coach meticulously orchestrated a 4-2-3-1 formation, which played a pivotal role in their ability to overturn the deficit. The structure provided defensive solidity while allowing dynamic transitions to attack. The two holding midfielders acted as a shield in front of the back four, providing the necessary balance between defense and attack. This setup allowed the full-backs to push higher up the pitch, contributing to the attacking phase without compromising defensive integrity.

David Miculescu's equalizer in the 24th minute was a product of intelligent movement and precise passing. FCSB’s midfield orchestrated the play with quick, incisive passes that disoriented the opposition's defensive shape. Miculescu's positioning between the lines enabled him to exploit the pockets of space, receiving the ball in a dangerous area and finishing with composure. This goal was a clear reflection of FCSB's strategic emphasis on exploiting spaces and maintaining high-tempo ball circulation.

Cristian Ganea's decisive goal in the 31st minute was another masterstroke of tactical execution. As FCSB continued to apply pressure, their high pressing forced Farul Constanța into errors, reclaiming possession quickly. The rapid transition from defense to attack caught Farul off guard, and Ganea capitalized on the opportunity with an impressive strike. FCSB's ability to press as a unit and transition efficiently was fundamental to their success in this match.

This victory not only extended FCSB's unbeaten run in the Romania Superliga but also showcased their ability to adapt and thrive under pressure. The tactical flexibility demonstrated by the team, along with the strategic substitutions and in-game adjustments, proved crucial in securing the win. As FCSB continues their domestic campaign, their blend of tactical discipline and attacking flair positions them as formidable contenders in the 2025-26 season.
