CSKA did it! CSKA achieved another memorable victory in Europe. The “Reds” defeated the great Italian Roma 3: 1 and accumulated 5 points in the group stage of the Europa League. This is the best performance of the “reds” in this phase of the tournament. So far, they have had a maximum of 3 group points per season. Once after a victory over the Norwegian Vikings and once over the Rapid in Vienna. CSKA played 10 games in Europe during the current campaign. He had 3 big wins and was back on the map. With a bang. The main credit goes to a man who celebrated his birthday yesterday – Grisha Ganchev.
“They really gave me a great gift. I’m very happy,” said the CSKA owner after 3: 1 on Roma for TOPSPORT.
He deserves it. He kept many of his promises to “red” Bulgaria. Now it is up to the team to get a modern stadium, become champion and enter the Champions League groups. The most important objectives that have not yet been met, but that sooner or later will come true. Because CSKA has an owner who loves the team, football and sports. And this is the basis. Ganchev is not just a “father” of CSKA, he is one of the fans. He is the club boss of his own free will, he was not sent. It’s not just about business for him. And because of this, CSKA will not only have it, but will increasingly return to its former glory. Glory that was forged with memorable battles and matches on the field over the years. Make CSKA the emblem of Bulgarian football.
The “Army” returned to Europe with Ganchev in the 2018/19 season. Their last participation before that ended after just two games: CSKA withdrew in disgrace from Zimbru (Moldova) with Alexander Tomov as owner and Stoycho Mladenov as coach. Since the return to the game with Roma, in just 3 seasons, CSKA has accumulated 22 games on the Old Continent. He won 10 of them, in 4 he ended in a draw. Eliminate 8 opponents: Riga, Admira, Titograd, Osijek, Sirens, BATE, B36 and Basel. He withdrew twice, from Copenhagen and Zorya. The class of the Danes is clear to all. Zorya’s was demonstrated during the current campaign with the team’s results in the groups. Against both teams, the referees were the main players and deprived CSKA of going forward.
The “Army” qualified for groups for the first time in 10 years. And there they won the most points in their history. During 3 seasons, CSKA recorded 3 great victories, all in 2020: over Rome and Basel with 3: 1, over BATE with 2: 0. Only the visit of the Young Boys remains a bitter memory. The 0: 3 loss is the biggest for the team under Grisha Ganchev in all tournaments. No one else has beaten CSKA by 3 goals in the last 5 years.

Naturally, the great success against the Roma irritated many people. They must have had a hard time falling asleep last night. Anger, malice and thoughts raged in their heads about how to belittle this victory for their hated CSKA. So, we heard nonsense about how Roma was with their reserves and they did not stretch much in the field. What are the reservations of the Barcelona legend Pedro Rodríguez, who has won everything in football, hired by Real Borja Mayoral and Carles Pérez (the Barça teenager)? And England international Chris Smalling? Or Federico Fascio? Here we end. It seems that some want CSKA to justify that … they beat a team like Roma 3: 1. Extreme nonsense! Or maybe a huge complex that has gotten bigger and bigger over the years?
Roma with Pedro and company is not a team. Kiev, which qualified for the Levski games on official business and with only two games in Europe before the clash with the “blues” is a real football scarecrow. A 1-0 win over Lazio in the last group match is a great thing. Success with 3: 1 over Rome’s other great Rome is clearly not.
It’s not just for people who hate CSKA or understand football as much as I and Valeri Bozhinov do from quantum physics. But let’s see what Levski has done in his last 3 appearances in Europe. Left Vaduz (Liechtenstein), AEK (Larnaca) and Hajduk. AEK beat the “blues” with 4: 0 in “Gerena”, and Ivan Trichkovski scored all the goals. Levski’s biggest win is exactly 3: 1, as much as CSKA beat Roma. The difference is that Levski scored against … Sutieska. Nerde London, nerd Lom, do you remember …
CSKA has a ticket to Europe in its hands. CSKA returned among the greatest. For others, it remains to open a great mouth again. And enjoy the little things. Like the fact that the new bus of the “reds” refused to start once in Plovdiv. It remains to drink cold water, even if it is zeolite.
CSKA is destined to beat the biggest. So it was, so it is now. CSKA played their games in Europe this season, they achieved a lot. Are Levski waiting for their European match on December 18? This is the question…
CSKA raises exactly 4,950,000 euros from the Europa League, Ludogorets – 3,780,000
This is shown on the invoices.
