PALACIO BOHEMIO
Spectators: 150 (Terracing: 113, Seating: 34, VIP seats: 3) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Genadi Gotzev got the match started through his kick off. Deyan Adamski struck a weak shot in the 9th minute. Zacharias Kavogiannis didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for MIHAEL.
