Mistakes in the "blue" defense secured CSKA's victory over Levski - 1

CSKA-Sofia beat Levski 2:0 in the 28th round of the First League championship and took the second "eternal derby" for the season. The first part ended goalless and completely reflected what was shown on the field. But as a week ago in Razgrad, today Levski was experiencing serious problems after the break. Apart from the defensive mistakes in the second half, in Levski they should also see the play in front positions, because who knows what work Gustavo Busato had. Tobias Heinz and Fernando Karanga scored the goals for the joy of CSKA, reports BTA.

Levski started more aggressively and pressed the opponent as soon as the ball was brought out. As a result, in the opening quarter of an hour there was more pressure for Busato in the goal of CSKA-Sofia. But at this very moment the "red" they even got to a goal, thanks to Lindseth. Even at the first look at the situation, it was seen that the Norwegian midfielder sent the ball into the net with his hand. Four minutes later, Fernando Karanga broke free, was alone against goalkeeper Andonov and tried to shoot. But the young guard of the blues shortened the corner and reflected.

By the end of the first half, there was a little more tension in front of Ivan Andonov, but who knows what clean situations were not created. In the 24th minute, Fernando Karanga could have punished a very bad mistake by Christian Dimitrov. The Brazilian caught a controversial pass from the defender, and Ivan Andonov came out and tried to block it with a split. Judge Draganov correctly read the situation and raised a yellow card to the goalkeeper. In the remaining 10 minutes, Karanga - this time after a pass from Tobias Heinz, as well as Phaeton, had two opportunities. In both cases, however, the shots did not pose a problem for Levski's goalkeeper.

The second half started a little more calmly, but the drama in blue was yet to come. In the 52nd minute, Mathias Phaeton attacked a disputed ball, which Kellyan van der Kaap and Kristian Dimitrov rushed towards. The Bulgarian in his attempt to clear kicked his teammate in the face. Five minutes later, El Gemili made it three in red, including their captain Matei, but the ensuing effort was weak. In the 61st minute, CSKA-Sofia took the lead thanks to a serious mistake by goalkeeper Ivan Andonov. A long, kicked ball landed in Levski's box and defender Jose Cordoba was waiting for the goalkeeper to get there first. Karanga pressed both, Andonov was slow to process, Mathias Phaeton also put his foot down. Finally, the goalkeeper kicked straight at Heinz, who very elegantly passed everyone and opened the score.

Minutes later, Jonathan Lindseth could have doubled the lead for the army, but it happened in the 73rd minute. Again, Heinz was at the heart of the attack, launched perfectly to Scarshem in Levski's penalty area. "The Blue" defense and especially Córdoba, did not get their bearings, and Skarshem shot with his right foot. Andonov rebounded, but right at the feet of Fernando Karanga, who from a few meters couldn't make a mistake for 2:0. In the end, it could even have been 3:0, after Danilo Asprilia came out from the left on the counterattack. However, his shot on the ground bounced off the side post and went out.
