Ludogorets' third team lost 0:1 to Benkovski (Isperih) in a match from the last, 34th round of the Northeastern Third League.

Ludogorets III created numerous clear goal opportunities but failed to convert them. The only goal in the match brought victory to the home team.

The match will be remembered for the poor organization at the stadium in Isperih and the rough treatment of Ludogorets' players and officials. The hosts did everything possible to ruin the football match by wasting time and providing only one ball for the game when six were required. Additionally, objects were thrown at Ludogorets players and the referees. A bottle struck the referee, miraculously not leading to a more serious injury. There was also a lack of adequate medical assistance, which further impeded the normal conduct of the game.

"I congratulate the boys on a great season and I am proud of them for what we achieved as a team," commented head coach Hristo Zlatinski.

Ludogorets III finishes the season in second place in the standings of the Northeastern Third League with 79 points.
