Ludogorets played a good game and it's important that they didn't lose, said head coach Igor Jovicevich after the 2:2 draw against Arda in a match from the last round of the Bulgarian football championship. The Razgrad team played with a large part of their reserves, but the squad also included starters like Anton Nedyalkov.
"We played a good game. We had good moments, we also saw some players from the academy for the first time. For most, the season is over, but we have national players who need to stay in shape. Everyone played well and it's important that we didn't lose," Jovicevich told Diema Sport, BTA reported.
Bernard Tekpetey made his long-awaited return to the game and was in the starting 11, but left the field with an injury in the first half.
"He is one of our best players, and I couldn't use him all season. Today he put in an effort and his behavior was excellent. This is the player we want to see and we hope it's not something serious," the Ludogorets head coach also said.
