Despodov after the "firecracker" in Razgrad: Why not beat Macedonia too?
- The Macedonians will understand the match more on a political basis, and not as a football match - says the attacker of Bulgaria, Kiril Despodov.

Both teams, together with Gibraltar, lost their chances for the first place, it is the team of Georgia that will move to a higher rank in the competition (League "B") and play in the play-offs for the placement of The European Championship in 2024.
The first mutual duel in this group was played in Razgrad, within the first round, Bulgaria and Macedonia drew with a score of 1:1.
The Bulgarians are coming to Skopje today in a victorious atmosphere, after they outclassed the Gibraltarians two days ago in Razgrad with 5:1. The new coach, Serbian strategist Mladen Krstajic, made his debut on Bulgaria's bench.
- I am glad that we won convincingly (against Gibraltar). I am ambitious in every game. You see a coaching change, a scheme change. There are many rookies, young guys who want to prove themselves. It's normal. We looked good, we try to play fast football. The selector is looking for radically different things, which in this short time we have accepted and done in the game.
There is still work to do, a match awaits us on Monday, which will be more difficult. Macedonians will understand the match more on a political basis, and not as a football match. Why not defeat the Macedonians? We will make a good result and beat them. Things will be resolved. The coach takes care of discipline, we need faster and more direct football. We work for four or five days, we cannot do a football miracle, and people should have patience – says the Bulgarian national team player, striker Kiril Despodov.
