Razgrad, Bulgaria – Champions League don show face again, and our boys Ludogorets go face Dinamo Minsk on Wednesday for di first qualifying round. Na so dem start dem journey wey go determine who fit chop better jollof later for the group stage. I mean, who no wan shine?
The last time wey Ludogorets see this stage na back in 2016-17, dem still dey try to find dem feet. From that time, dem don dey collect titles for Bulgaria like say dem dey exchange am for pepper soup. But Champions League? Chai! Dem don miss am since them waka go home after group stage. Omo, dem go need all di ginger wey dem fit get dis time.
On the other side, Dinamo Minsk dey gats show wetin dem sabi as dem don finally win Belarusian Premier League after waiting for 18 years. Na wah! Dem don follow am with another title for di next year. But right now, dem dey chill for fourth position, and di way dem dey play lately no go fit ginger anybody! Only one win from di last four games? Na wetin dem call underwhelming vibes.
Coach Rui Mota don set hin eyes on how to break dis long absence for Champions League. Him kno say comot with win against Dinamo go fit boost him guys’ confidence—na two of dem don face each other before, with Ludogorets winning 2-1 on aggregate last year. So dem don come together like sweet mates!
For line up, no be joke, Ludogorets get players like Yves Erick Bile wey sabi wetin e dey do, plus Deroy Duarte wey dey prepare to deliver assist and wahala for Dinamo defence. But e get injury worries too, so na only God sabi if dem fit make am to start di match.
As for Dinamo, their main man, Karen Vardanyan don turn dem top scorer. But abeg, three defeats for last four games no dey shine? E get as dem dey lose points wey go make dem fall from top of di table like person wey wan balance for di edge of di stool.
For dis match, both teams go try show wetin dem fit do, but Ludogorets dey carry di home advantage like palm wine wey dey small for di cup. Football no fit clear as rain; dem fit dey consider “two team fit play draw” but still, I feel say na Ludogorets go carry di day.
So, if you wan get your popcorn ready, make sure you no miss dis mouth-watering encounter. Champions League dey call and everybody wan answer!
