African sextet wins Bulgarian league title with Ludogorets

Six African players have won the 2020-21 Bulgarian First League title with Ludogorets with four matches to spare.

They include Olivier Verdon (Benin Republic), Stephane Badji (Senegal), Bernard Tekpetey (Ghana), Jordan Ikoko (Congo DR), Anicet Abel (Madagascar), and Mavis Tchibota (Congo).

Valdas Dambrauskas’ Eagles sealed their triumph for the tenth consecutive season following their 3-1 triumph over Beroe on Tuesday night at the Huvepharma Arena.

Goals from Kiril Despodov, Dominik Yankov and Claudiu Keseru helped Ludogorets silence the visitors – who have failed to win any of their last six games in all competitions.
