Ludogorets won over Arda again

Ludogorets easily won against Arda 4:0 in Kardzhali. Thus, the Eagles inflicted the first loss on Alexander Tunchev’s team at home this season and pulled 10 points ahead of second-placed Botev Plovdiv. Tomorrow, the “Canaries” host Krumovgrad, and on Sunday the two teams meet at the Huvepharma Arena. It is curious that Ludogorets scored a total of 9 goals against Arda this season after a 5:1 win in Razgrad in the summer.

Ludogorets took the lead in the 10th minute. After a very good attack, picked up by Naressi, the ball was passed to the left to Rick, he found Son, who served a wonderful pass to Rwan, and the Brazilian could not make a mistake, scoring his 8th goal since the start of the season in the elite. Razgrad continued to press, and in the 25th minute, Jakub Piotrowski tried his aim, but his strong shot was not accurate. Ivan Tilev's header followed, but it was very inaccurate. Seconds later, Bonman made a mistake in passing the ball, giving it to Lachezar Kotev, who did the harder thing and failed to hit the goal. In the 33rd minute, Ludogorets made a triple miss. Rick broke through from the left and shot, Anatoly Gospodinov did not intervene well and the ball reached Chochev, who was blocked by Bobi Tsonev. Then Rwan tried, but Viachki intervened, and finally Erick Marcus beat over the goal.

The champions reached the second goal in the 36th minute. Rick went from the right to the center, passed to Rwan, and he returned to Son. The Spaniard made it 2:0 with a wonderful lay-up. By the end of the half, Arda only managed to score with another inaccurate shot – by Tonislav Yordanov.

In the 56th minute, Arda reached a goal. It was the work of Tonislav Yordanov after a great pass from Lachezar Kotev. However, the goal was disallowed due to a major offside by the former CSKA player. A double substitution followed for the Eagles, with Caio Vidal and Deroy Duarte coming on to replace Erik Marcus and Jakub Piotrowski.

In the 77th minute, Ludogorets scored their third goal. After Rick crossed from a corner, Ivaylo Chochev headed the ball to Caio Vidal, who scored his first goal of the season with a very strange header. Ten minutes later, the visitors scored their fourth. Son crossed from a free kick, where Dinis Almeida brought down reserve Kwadwo Duah, who headed the ball into Anatoly Gospodinov’s net from close range, creating the final score.
