Spectators: 167 (Terracing: 126, Seating: 38, VIP seats: 3) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Chudomir Nelchinov took the kick off in the first half of the match.

When Bogomil Veshev came up free with the goalie in the 47th minute, the GARGOYLES fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Bogomil Veshev couldn't finish the play.
