Ludogorets won its first point in the Europa League after drawing 0-0 in an away match versus Viktoria Plzen. The match was evenly balanced but the best chance of scoring was for the Bulgarian team which missed a penalty kick in the 52nd minute. It was the European debut for Ludogorets’ new senior coach Igor Jovicevic who is yet to face problems after Kayo Vidal, Ivaylo Chochev and Dinis Almeida all had to leave the pitch because of contusion. After two rounds in the main phase, Ludogorets has 1 point and is in 27th position. Viktoria Plzen is 22nd with 2 points.
