Goalless draw in a visit Sofia's CSKA 01-09-2013 18:55

Botev Plovdiv reduced the distance to the first position after a 0-0 away draw against CSKA Sofia. With this point, The Canaries are third in the standings, just one point behind the leaders Litex Lovech and Ludogorets, who also lost points this round.

CSKA and Botev played an interesting game with a lot of good goalscoring opportunities. Adam Stahovyak made several good saves, but his teammates in the attack could not defeat CSKA's goalie. Close to scoring were Maryan Ognyanov and Romario Kortzorg. A goal by Abel Anicet in the first half was disallowed due to offside. In the next round Botev will face the local rival Lokomotiv Plovdiv. The game is in two weeks, after the games of the national teams. 4 players will leave the squad to play for their teams - Jordan Hristov, Todor Nedelev and Veselin Minev will play for Bulgaria's national team, and Boban Grncharov - for Macedonia.
