Iskra claimed a 1-0 away win against Ком in the second division's regular season, round eight, on Saturday afternoon. The decisive moment arrived in the 63rd minute when the visitors finally broke through. After a string of fruitless performances, the squad away from home ended their barren spell.
Com were not without chances before the break, but they could not find the net. Iskra sat deep and absorbed pressure, waiting for their opportunity. The home side kept knocking on the door, but the away defence held firm.
What made this result stand out was the context. Com had been solid at home, picking up two wins and two draws in their last five outings. Iskra, by contrast, had endured a difficult run — two heavy defeats, a draw, and a solitary victory. They blew away in the last two league meetings, losing 2-0 to both Ловчен and Единство.
The single goal shifted the balance entirely. Iskra managed to see it out after that breakthrough, weathering late pressure to secure all three points. Com were left frustrated, having dominated territory without converting their superiority.
The result leaves Ком in eighth place with eight points from six matches, while Iskra move up to seventh with seven points from seven games. Both sides remain in the lower half, but the gap between them has narrowed. Iskra have shown they can compete away from home when the occasion demands it.
