Stoyan Velinovski showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Lyuben Chervenkov in the 14th minute of the match. 23 minutes into the match, ReLaXbg's goal looked a bit too open when Lyuben Chervenkov came free, but Stoyan Velinovski reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

The ReLaXbg fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-1. If Simeon Svilarov had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 33rd minute.

The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 0-3 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. After the first half ReLaXbg were leading 0-3. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

57 minutes into the match, Simeon Svilarov notched a goal, 0-4, to the right of THE HAWKS Football Club's Vasil Ilinov. Vasil Ilinov was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it.

Simeon Svilarov struck a weak shot in the 63rd minute. Vasil Ilinov didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for ReLaXbg. Borislav Karpuzov fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 66th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Stoyan Velinovski having to interfere. In the 67th match minute, ReLaXbg was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Metodi Madzhurov to maneuver through the defense. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Borislav Karpuzov in the 68th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Stoyan Velinovski saved ReLaXbg from getting behind.
