Ludogorets won against Hebar 4:0 in the first semi-final of the Bulgarian Cup, played in Razgrad. The Eagles started strongly and quickly took a two-goal lead after two accurate shots from Rick Jhonathan, while Dinis Almeida and Spas Delev formed the final score in the second half. The rematch is on May 2 in Pazardzhik, and if successful in it, the Eeagles will meet the winner of the pair Botev (Plovdiv) - CSKA.

The champions took the lead in the 4th minute. Anton Nedyalkov made a wonderful long pass to Tekpetey, he brought Son into the attack, Piotrowski fought for the ball and it ended up in Rick, who made no mistake. In the 22nd minute, Ludogorets scored a second goal. After a sustained attack that went through Tekpetey, Naressi, Duah and Piotrowski, the ball found its way to Rick who effortlessly scored his second goal of the game. After the two quick goals, Hebar finally got a look at the goal, but first Oktay Khamdiev and then Sheikh Diamanka failed to score an honorable goal. In the 28th minute, Piotrowski jumped alone against Petar Deberliev, but surprisingly for his standards did not hit the goal. In the 40th minute, Rick ran almost the entire field with the ball at his feet and found Duah well, who failed to score with his left foot.

In the 46th minute, Rick tried to complete his hat trick, but with a good shot he missed the target. Nine minutes later, Dinis Almeida was surprisingly involved in the attack and made a wonderful break, which ended with a shot deflected by the goalkeeper. At the ensuing corner, Nedelev crossed to Naressi, who continued with a header for Almeida and the Portuguese without hesitation killed the intrigue in the match, and perhaps in the duel in general. In the 77th minute, the reserve in this match Georgi Terziev could have scored a fourth goal, but luck covered the visitors. However, this happened just 180 seconds after that. Then Gropper came in from the left and crossed sharply to Tissera, whose shot was cleared, but then it hit the head of Spas Delev, who couldn't make a mistake - 4:0.

In the last minutes, Atanas Kabov tried to score an honorable goal, but his strong shot did not find the target. In the 90th minute, Hebar saved the crossbar, this time after Georgi Terziev's header.
