Player ratings

Alberto Salido runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 38. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match

Beroe out of the cup

Arda ended it 0‑0. The season narrows to the league now, and everyone in the ground knew it before the final whistle.

Squad

Jiří Klíma in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Beroe this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

Nothing got past João Sérgio

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 22 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Match

Bozhidar Kraev sends Beroe past Ludogorets

It finished 2‑0, and it was Bozhidar Kraev’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Beroe.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Emir Kuhinja

Marked 8.69 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Squad

No hiding place for Preslav Borukov

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Preslav Borukov, and the manager let it.

Player ratings

Facundo Costantini shuts the door

Defensive actions: 19, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Squad

Bozhidar Kraev is off the mark for Beroe

The first one is the one every signing is asked about until it arrives. It has arrived, and he can stop being asked.

Market

Beroe say no — this time

The offer from Stabaek for Emir Kuhinja was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad

Tempers go at Beroe

Bozhidar Kraev was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Santiago Brunelli

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 22 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Squad

Francisco Varela signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Francisco Varela and Beroe agree another 3 years.

Squad

Facundo Costantini gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

Jiří Klíma has outgrown this division

There is a level at which a footballer stops being tested and starts being contained, and he reached it some time ago. Beroe know it, and so does everybody who watches him.

Player ratings

Francisco Varela shuts the door

Defensive actions: 17, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Player ratings

Bozhidar Kraev runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 16. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market

Still no ink between Beroe and Jiří Klíma

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Beroe, another week without a signature from Jiří Klíma.
