Ludogorets outplayed Dinamo, yet didn’t win

The leaders of the Romanian and Bulgarian championships, Ludogorets and Dinamo Bucharest, ended the friendly match in a draw. They played today nearby Belek, Antalya, where “the eagles” are currently on a preparation. Ivaylo Petev’s boys had the upper hand the entire match, yet, they couldn’t win, to a certain degree thanks to the poor referee of the match.

Romanians were the first to score, at the 9th minute, after a serious mistake of the Ludogorets defense. It was also their only scoring situation for the match. “The eagles” shoved them in their half and situations were coming one after another. However, a goal was not scored. A couple of times referee raised a flag for questionable offsides and the spectators left with a persistent feeling that he was trying to please Dinamo, since the match was broadcasted live on Romanian television. In the end of the game Quixada got a contusion after a player of the adversary team stepped on his foot. According to primary information, the injury is not serious.

Ludogorets’s Eleven: Golubovic, Choco, Barthe, Guldan (81' Mantyla), Minev, Dyakov, Genchev, Marcelinho (78' Quixada), Ivanov (54' Bakalov), Alexandrov (72' Stoyanov), Gargorov.
