CSKA Pandukli's Evgeni Gorchev played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Valkan Kazashki in the 7th minute of play. Vasil Krusev might have been able to make a better finish in the 10th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Evgeni Gorchev. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Vasil Krusev ran back to his position shaking his head. Vasil Krusev received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 16th minute. Evgeni Gorchev tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After 24 minutes, Denimir Budakov mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the CSKA Mlechino and the CSKA Pandukli players grew even worse after the yellow card. A collision led to CSKA Mlechino getting a freekick after 24 minutes play. Denimir Budakov hit a great ball. Ruslan Stumbov was in exellent shape and made a fantastic save when he, in the 26th minute of the match, managed to get hold of the ball after a long shot from Toshko Gyulmezov. In the 27th minute Filip Pelteshki shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Evgeni Gorchev saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Evgeni Gorchev made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Vasil Krusev in the 28th minute of play. The supporters of CSKA Mlechino booed when CSKA Pandukli was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 34 match minutes in a wonderful position. Gencho Borov didn't get a good kick on the ball. Evgeni Gorchev showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Vasil Krusev in the 37th minute of the match. Vlado Belokonski's late challenge caught a CSKA Mlechino's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Vlado Belokonski helped the player get up and apologised. In the 44th minute Dragan Gorolov shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Evgeni Gorchev saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The score stood at 0-0 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.
The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Peyo Bozhov to strike the kick off in the second half. Vasil Krusev received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 51st minute. Evgeni Gorchev tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

CSKA Pandukli's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave CSKA Mlechino the free kick. Veselin Kilev hit a great freekick 56 minutes into the match. Vlado Belokonski was shown his second yellow card after 58 minutes, following a rather ugly tackle on opponent. That was the end of his participation in the match. After 59 played minutes CSKA Pandukli got a freekick which was hit by Vlado Belokonski. Valkan Kazashki blasted a shot towards the goal in the 62nd minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Evgeni Gorchev having to make a save. Evgeni Gorchev stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Vasil Krusev's shot from short distance in the 64th minute. 66 minutes into the match, CSKA Pandukli's goal looked a bit too open when Dragan Gorolov came free, but Evgeni Gorchev reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Evgeni Gorchev was out of position in the 67 minute of play, and Vasil Krusev capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Vasil Krusev really showed his touch with that goal: 0-1. Vasil Krusev could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 72nd minute of the match, but Evgeni Gorchev made a huge save. In the 78th minute, CSKA Pandukli's Bogomil Devendzhiev seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Bogomil Devendzhiev the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of CSKA Pandukli protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Bogomil Devendzhiev had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. When the match had been going on for 80 minutes, CSKA Mlechino's Venko Elenchev got an opportunity to shoot a penalty. He stayed cool and waited for the goalkeeper to move, before he confidently shot the ball into the goal, to the left of Evgeni Gorchev.

In the 89th minute, Valkan Kazashki ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Evgeni Gorchev was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-4. CSKA Pandukli's Evgeni Gorchev proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 92nd minute of the match, managed to save CSKA Pandukli from getting a goal against them. Dragan Gorolov was extremely unlucky when he, in the 93rd minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out. When the final whistle sounded CSKA Mlechino left the ground with the victory after a much better performance than CSKA Pandukli.
