And now he’s ruining Bulgarian football, together with a few of his former teammates. Absolute charlatans…
After reading about guys like him and Letchkov, are there any players from the golden generation that want a revolution to break the cycle of corruption?
Not really, they are either too old or dead at this point.
Has there ever been a bigger bottlejob in international football than France’s '94 World Cup qualification?
Before the final two matches France needed one point to qualify for the finals, but lost both games at home to Israel and Bulgaria in the 90th minute.
With Ginola absolutely hating the French manager back then. He stated he was relieved they didn’t make it, because he dreaded the thought of having to spend multiple weeks with that man.
And after that, there has been more WC finals with us in it than without. With 2 titles won.
Thank you Emil!
It allowed us to break everything and rebuild completely. Without this collapse, we may have done a good WC but we wouldn’t have reached the level we are today.
A last minute cannonball shot to put your country into the world cup. That has to be one of the best feelings a person can have.
This is the only time l cried after a football game. I still remember very well. I was gutted.
