Player ratings

Stefan Stojanović runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 27. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Robin Schouten 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 Septemvri this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Guilherme sends Septemvri past Montana

It finished 1‑0, and it was Guilherme’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Septemvri.

Squad

Ayoub Abou falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

Valentine Ozornwafor 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.

Loan watch

Marsel Bibishkov counts the days

“I watch every Septemvri game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Spartak 1918 runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

Squad

No hiding place for Robin Schouten

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

Match

Septemvri come up short against Botev Plovdiv

Botev Plovdiv left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad

Alfredo Mazacote dropped after a run of poor form

The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.

Squad

Alfredo Mazacote knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Alfredo Mazacote trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Squad

When it matters, Stoyan Stoichkov plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Faiz Mattoir

Successful dribbles: 9. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.
