In an emotional statement after the match from the second round of the efbet League, coach Atanas Atanasov revealed details about the impressive victory of Dobrudzha over Slavia with 2:1. A key moment in the match was the red card received by Bogdan Kostov, which seriously complicated the team.
"Preliminary research showed weaknesses in Slavia's system, but our initial plan was disrupted due to the player's dismissal," Atanasov shared. He emphasized the exceptional self-sacrifice of the players, who managed to cope with the challenge, demonstrating an extraordinary collective spirit.
The coach openly shared his philosophy for team development: "Our goal is building and continuously improving our level in the efbet League. Every victory is a bonus for players who must continue to improve". Atanasov categorically stated that he does not like excessive praise, but values strict task execution.
Analyzing the match, the coach admitted that the team makes mistakes, but this time the opponent failed to capitalize on them. Unlike the loss to Lokomotiv Plovdiv, this time Dobrudzha demonstrated exceptional character, especially after being reduced to ten players.
A key emphasis in his statement was the importance of discipline. "Spirit and character are most important. You can learn techniques, but without discipline, nothing is achieved," Atanasov was categorical. He emphasized that individual skills are important, but collective will is decisive.
Regarding home matches, the coach did not hide his concerns. "In the next two months, we will not play in Varna. We will be either on an away field or a neutral one," he shared, but added that true team spirit can overcome all obstacles.
Atanas Atanasov's statement was an eloquent message about the power of team spirit, discipline, and dedication in football, demonstrated during the match against Slavia.
