Four. Five ‘
Tournament: League of Nations
Stadium:
Audience:
The Bulgarian team will play its last game of the Europa League tournament. Tonight, Georgi Dermendzhiev’s team will play in a decisive match for Ireland, which will determine the relegation to the lower C Division of the tournament. Only a victory in Dublin will leave the “tricolor” in Division “B”.
The situation in the group could have been different if our team had not allowed a late draw at home to the Irish in September. Then the match ended 1: 1 and this is the only point in the Bulgarian assets.
Does BFU want Ilian Iliev as the new national coach?
The other option is Alexander Dimitrov
The “Clover” has 2 and does not win either. A few days ago, they lost 0: 1 during their visit to Wales, and the national team lost 1: 2 to Finland in Sofia.
Local coach Stephen Kenny will be without Matt Doherty and James McClean, who have tested positive for coronavirus. The two were joined by Callum Robinson and Alan Brownie, who are also in quarantine. Seamus Coleman, Enda Stevens and John Egan were injured, and Jeff Hendrick and Jason Molumbi were punished. James McCarthy withdrew from the team for family reasons.
Martin Lukov: We hope the Irish don’t score their second goal tomorrow
“I don’t expect him to be calm in the game”
The personnel problems in the Bulgarian camp are not minor. Nikolay Mihailov, Georgi Terziev, Martin Raynov, Georgi Kostadinov, Todor Nedelev, Anton Nedyalkov, Vasil Bozhikov, Dimitar Velkovski, and Hristian Vassilev were found to be COVID-19. The last three tested positive on Monday. Kiril Despodov, Petar Zanev, Ismail Isa and Plamen Iliev were injured.
SEE HERE WHO IS THE FAVORITE IN THE MATCH
Dermendzhiev is expected to make several changes compared to the match against Finland. Radoslav Terziev, who was called up urgently, can appear in the center of defense, playing in pairs with his former teammate in Botev (Plovdiv) Christian Dimitrov. Strahil Popov and Cicinho will act on both flanks in defense, and Yanis Karabelov and Kristian Malinov will have the task of stopping the attacks of the home team in time. Dimitar Iliev will start in the top positions at the expense of Bozhidar Kraev, and behind him will play Galin Ivanov, Spas Delev and Birsent Karagaren.
Yordan Lechkov: In my opinion, we won’t have a new coach
“The problem is not with the coach”
Historically, we have played quite hard against the Irish. We defeated them for the last time in the spring of 1987 – 2: 1 in qualifying for the European Championship. In the next 6 games we registered two losses and four draws with the same result: 1: 1.
