Ludogorets secure important Victory at “Ticha”

Ludogorets secured an important 3–2 away victory against Cherno More. As a result, the “Eagles” maintained their perfect record of four wins from four matches at the start of the league season.

The hosts opened the scoring first through Georgi Lazarov. After the break, however, the Razgrad side produced a lightning-fast comeback, turning the game around within just six minutes.

First, following a combination between Bernard Tekpetey and Ivaylo Chochev, Ertan Tombak attempted to clear the ball, but it deflected off Rwan Cruz and went in to make it 1–1.

Soon afterwards, substitute Nathan broke down the left and found Tekpetey, who played the ball on to Chochev. The midfielder then set up Rwan Cruz for his second goal of the match, as he finished into an empty net.

In the 53rd minute, Tekpetey combined with Simeon Shishkov, whose perfect cross was headed home by Chochev to make it 3–1, with the ball going past Christian Tomov.

The Varna side managed to make the game interesting again when Nikolay Zlatev scored with a low shot from just outside the penalty area to reduce the deficit to 3–2. They were unable to find another goal, however, and Ludogorets held on to claim all three points.

Mihail Polendakov also made his official debut for the “Eagles” in the match, coming on in the second half.
