Levski Sofia decisively defeated Botev Plovdiv 3:0 in a match from the 21st round of the First League. The match was played at the Georgi Asparuhov Stadium in the capital.
The “Canaries” were unable to resist their rival, who clearly outplayed them and deservedly took the three points.
From the first minutes, the hosts applied pressure, but had difficulty reaching clear scoring opportunities. Between the 24th and 32nd minutes, the “blues” hit the crossbar of Daniel Naumov’s goal twice.
In the 37th minute, the logical thing happened and the hosts took the lead. Aldair crossed from the right, Everton Bala outplayed Botev’s defense and headed in for 1:0.
The second half started badly for the “yellow-blacks”. In the 50th minute, Everton Bala made it 2:0 from a penalty kick, and 4 minutes later, Bouras scored the classic goal.
In the 61st minute, Mazir Sula’s goal was disallowed due to offside, and until the end of the match, both teams did not create any danger in front of the two goalkeepers.
Botev’s starting lineup: Naumov, Soldo, Iliev, Maras, Emerson, Algarra, Minkov, Conte, Hein, Videv, Araujo
