League Play-Off

Ignat
Spectators: 36 (Terracing: 28, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Levent Zharkov started the match with the kick off. When Matey Pramatarski came up free with the goalie in the 9th minute, the CSKA Ignat fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Matey Pramatarski couldn't finish the play. After a rather tough play, CSKA Ignat's Viktor Yochkolovski got a free kick in the 15th minute. Abdulbaki Oğuralp received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 17th minute. Acho Búrzin tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 19th minute Yoncho Zhelyazkov shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Serafim Shotev saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Sava Gyurdzhiyski recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 25th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Sava Gyurdzhiyski received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 31st minute. Serafim Shotev tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Boyan Smilenov hit a great freekick 37 minutes into the match. 45 minutes into the game, Yoncho Zhelyazkov recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Serafim Shotev. Yoncho Zhelyazkov showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 1-0.

The wind increased when Matey Pramatarski made the kick off in the second half. In the 51st match minute, Bilinzi was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Stoyo Beykov to maneuver through the defense. After some fancy dribbling in the 52nd minute, Toshko Zmiyarov managed to get in a good position for a shot. CSKA Ignat's supporters rose to their feet, but Toshko Zmiyarov was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Serafim Shotev breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 53 minutes into the game, Yoncho Zhelyazkov was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. CSKA Ignat's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Bilinzi the free kick. In the 53rd match minute, CSKA Ignat was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Yoncho Zhelyazkov to maneuver through the defense. After 60 played minutes CSKA Ignat got a freekick which was hit by Boyan Smilenov. In the 62nd match minute, Bilinzi was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Boris Tikov to maneuver through the defense. Bilinzi's Serafim Shotev played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Matey Pramatarski in the 66th minute of play. After 68 minutes of play, CSKA Ignat's Matey Pramatarski made it 2-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Serafim Shotev was left in no man's land by his defense there! Acho Búrzin showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Levent Zharkov, who was totally free with the ball in the 75th minute. Bilinzi's Lyubcho Leshtanski was substituted for Zahari Kúsmetski. 79 minutes into the match, Bilinzi's Levent Zharkov sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Acho Búrzin narrowly saved just below the crossbar. After a rather tough play, Bilinzi's Stiliyan Túrkalanov got a free kick in the 80th minute. 86 minutes into the match, Bilinzi's goal looked a bit too open when Matey Pramatarski came free, but Serafim Shotev reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. If Levent Zharkov had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 88th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Boris Tikov could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 90th minute of the match, but Acho Búrzin made a huge save. With a little luck, CSKA Ignat's Acho Búrzin got control of the ball when Abdulbaki Oğuralp tried to sneak it across the goal line. CSKA Ignat's fans were exulted and cheered after their team won in a match that could easily have gone the other way.
