Bulgaria saw off Black Power 2:1 in the Premier League's Regular Season round four on Tuesday. The hosts moved clear at the top of the table with a victory that leaves their four-point gap at the summit intact.
And here's the thing about the opening goal — it came in the twentieth minute, the moment the eye catches first. O. Otim found the net for Bulgaria, a strike that set the tone for everything that followed.
Black Power responded with urgency. L. Olaboro equalised in the thirty-eighth minute, shifting the momentum before half-time and forcing the hosts to dig in for the second half.
The decisive point arrived in the fifty-fifth minute when S. Achidi restored Bulgaria's lead. The visitors pressed for an equaliser but could not find a way through.
By then the statistics told a different story to the result. Black Power registered 152 attacks against 136 for Bulgaria, yet the final tally rested on three clinical finishes. The visitors were more active, but Bulgaria were sharper when it mattered.
The table now reflects a clear hierarchy. Bulgaria remain first with twelve points from four matches, while Black Power sit fourth on nine points after their first defeat of the campaign.
