Bulgarian football league season continues

Entities: Ludogorets Razgrad · Bernard Tekpetey · Daniël Halachev · Apollon Tel Aviv · Thomas Reis

Overview

The 2026 Bulgarian season has remained tightly contested. In the third round of the First League, Ludogorets Razgrad edged Botev Vratsa 2‑1 at home, keeping the champions level on points with Levski but ahead on goal difference. Goals came from Bernard Tekpetey and Ruan Cruz before halftime, while substitute Preslav Borukov reduced the deficit for Botev in the second half. A red card was shown to Emerson Rodrigues after a VAR review. Ludogorets coach Thomas Reis noted the side started strongly but faded later, citing fatigue and the need for greater cohesion, especially with new signing Vidal integrating into the squad. Botev coach Todor Simov praised his team's control, saying they had not seen such dominance over Ludogorets in recent meetings. The result sustains Ludogorets' position at the top of the table as the league race progresses.
