That will learn the racists
Letchkov, stoitchkov, yankov, mikhaelov in goals.
Their kit was class in 94.
Borislav Mikhailov - an utter nutcase.
Fucking capitalism. Ruined Eastern European football
His goalie kit in 94 was very striking. As was he. A mentalist
There was a wiry little lad called kostadinov up front . He was very good. He played for sporting Lisbon
I work with a Bulgarian lad. They’re more interested in volleyball.
He destroyed the French in that game in Paris
One of the most sensational World Cup qualifying games of all time
One of the most sensational games of all time
That finish for the winner was absolute clutch
Ginola lost that game for France. Got absolutely ostracized for it
Bulgaria never won a World Cup match before 1994.
He wasn’t that little.
Neither did Eire
He made a mistake but France should never been caught out at the back in such a manner
The manager, whoever he was, was clueless
Some finish though, it was unstoppable
Not to worry pal…the six nations is only around the corner. You’ll be back believing the hype in no time
The Vassil Levski was a notorious graveyard for Irish teams over the years. Done by a bought referee in 1977 when a Johnny Giles goal was ruled out for no reason whatsoever.
Also in 1987, when Kevin Moran tripped Nasko Sirakov about 5 yards outside the box and the infamous Carlos Silva Valente of Portugal pointed to the spot from almost the centre circle. Tanev converted the spotter to give the Bulgarians a most undeserved 2-1 win.
Tanev was a tidy player
They were good back then. Anjo Sadkov was a fine attacking midfielder. Got the first goal in that 87 game when Valente waved play on after Mick McCarthy, of all people, was nearly kicked into the stand by a Bulgar.
You’d imagine the Bulgarian ultras didn’t head home after the left the stadium…
Could be a scrap or 6 on the streets of Sofia.
Well done England.
Very strange post
