Goalkeeper Dimitar Mitov has already accumulated a lot of experience in Great Britain, and after matches in the English League 1 it was the turn of two teams in Scotland, BNR reported.
He is currently guarding the Aberdeen net, and gradually since the spring he has established himself in the national team as the first choice for his position.
The first question was asked whether today's match with Northern Ireland could be considered more or less his home game given his experience on the Island.
"I prefer to be in Bulgaria, this is my home. Otherwise, our team is moving in the right direction, with slow steps, but in the right direction. We want to win more, but it's a long process. I just hope that we will continue on the path we are on," Mitov began.
After that, it was also about the absence of people like Alex Petkov and Fabian Nürnberger, who each have two yellow cards and they are suspended for tomorrow's match. They played this line-up in the first three matches and the sync is there as Bulgaria are yet to concede a goal in the Nations League edition of the tournament, in Group C3.
"Whoever is chosen to replace them will perform up to par. They are all good footballers, and we train together. It won't need much adaptation. There will be no problem to take their places".
"You are always ready when you put on the shirt of Bulgaria. For the match with Luxembourg – yes, they didn't have a single position, maybe one. If we manage to make the same performance in defense today – wonderful. But we have a tough match ahead of us. We have prepared well and we have studied the enemy. If we show the best version of ourselves, we can win, said Mitov and specified that there are no problems with constant corner kicks or long touches, which are characteristic of the opponent's game.
"Yes, we know the opponent. Yes, they are a very young team. And a little more class with them is added from match to match. We respect them, but we also have our advantages," Mitov said.
