League Play-Off

Akhrenlii Stadion
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Dobri Tamburdzhiyski kicked off to start the match. Rafail Arbov's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Mircho Andreevski firmly grabbed it by the left post. Raycho Pironski might have been able to make a better finish in the 9th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Mircho Andreevski. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Raycho Pironski ran back to his position shaking his head. An unexpectedly hard shot by Dobri Tamburdzhiyski in the 11th minute of play forced FC Akhrenlii's goalkeeper Milcho Karaganev to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 15 minutes into the game, FC Yapcha's Rusi Yarlovski nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Milcho Karaganev made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 0-1. If Dobri Tamburdzhiyski had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 21st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a defensive mix-up in FC Yapcha's zone, Rafail Arbov stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Mircho Andreevski came out of the goal and Rafail Arbov tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Rafail Arbov received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 31st minute. Mircho Andreevski tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Veselin Engibarov hit a great freekick 36 minutes into the match. After some fancy dribbling in the 37th minute, Svetozar Lashev managed to get in a good position for a shot. FC Akhrenlii's supporters rose to their feet, but Svetozar Lashev was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Mircho Andreevski breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. FC Akhrenlii's Raycho Pironski got a good chance for a goal in the 43rd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Zhan Stamov hit a great freekick 47 minutes into the match. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-2 lead.

Rafail Arbov scored 1-2 in the 58th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Mircho Andreevski, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. If Raycho Pironski had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 64th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Milcho Karaganev made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Dobri Tamburdzhiyski in the 70th minute of play. Rashko Pandov kicked well hit freekick during the 71st minute of the match. After some fancy dribbling in the 72nd minute, Rusi Yarlovski managed to get in a good position for a shot. FC Yapcha's supporters rose to their feet, but Rusi Yarlovski was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Milcho Karaganev breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Dobri Tamburdzhiyski fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 76th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Milcho Karaganev having to interfere. In the 80thth minute of the game Raycho Pironski who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but FC Yapcha's Mircho Andreevski was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Raycho Pironski received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 81st minute. Mircho Andreevski tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.
