The unpleasant scene from the match Rapid Bucharest – lighthouse Constanța, contested in Giulești and won by the people of Bucharest with 3-1, had consequences for the host club. Giuleșteni were fined because of a child who entered the field and showed obscene signs.
The Romanian Football Federation decided to fine the Rapid Bucharest club with the amount of 10,000 lei (approximately 2,000 euros), after the incident caused by a small supporter of the team.
The child entered the field and made obscene gestures towards the Lighthouse gallery
Near the end of the game, a small Rapid fan entered the field and crossed the lawn to the front of the sector occupied by Farul Constanța fans. Arriving in front of the visitors' gallery, he made obscene signs towards the “sailors” supporters, under the surprised looks of those in the stands.
His gesture was quickly noticed by the Giulești club officials, and Ionuț Voicu (41 years old), the team manager of Rapid, intervened immediately, leading the minor back to the stands.

According to the announcement of the Disciplinary Commission of the FRF, Rapid was sanctioned based on art. 82.1 and 3.e, related to art. 83.7 of the Disciplinary Regulation, with a sports penalty of 10,000 lei.
