On this day exactly eight years ago, Ludogorets played a great game and finished 1-1 against Arsenal in the Youth Champions League. The team, led by Yuri Vasev, performed strongly and made it difficult for the rising stars of the English colossus, among whom was the current Borussia (Dortmund) ace Doniel Malen. An interesting fact is that eight of the juniors of the Eagles who took part in the match, made careers and continue to play successfully in professional football clubs. Among them are Daniel Naumov (OFI Crete), Svetoslav Kovachev (Akhmat Grozny, Russia), Denislav Alexandrov (Slavia), Erol Dost (Krumovgrad), Preslav M. Petrov (Danube), Ivaylo Klimentov (Dobrudja), Tony Ivanov (Yantra). and Dimitar M. Iliev (Ludogorets II). Some of them also have matches for the Bulgarian national team.

PFC Ludogorets wishes them success in their future careers.
