Coach Georgi Dermendzhiev’s boys lost unhappy 0: 1 when visiting Wales in a League B, Group 4 match at Cardiff Stadium.
The hosts’ winning goal fell in added time when defender Neko Williams intercepted a cross into the box from Jonathan Williams.
The game started evenly, marked by torrential rains in the middle of the first half. In the second half the hosts picked up speed and in the 75th minute Brooks aimed for the crossbar. The match was going to be a scoreless draw when the hosts reached the winning goal.
“I am very disappointed. We did not deserve to lose in this way. We were very compact. We neutralized their attack, but again we conceded a goal in the last minute,” national Yanis Karabelov said.
