Last weekend, in Sofia, in the 10th round of the Bulgarian national championship, CSKA 1948 faced Botev, with the guests celebrating victory, thanks to one of the best performers on the field, a footballer from Slovenia. Alen Korošec, who won the Slovenian Cup title with Rogaška last season, started the match and remained on the pitch in the Bulgarian capital until the end. Botev won 1-0, with Alen Korošec also contributing to the only goal of the match.
The young Slovenian midfielder, who will celebrate his 23rd birthday in November, stole the ball from the home team in the 84th minute in the middle of the field and passed it to his teammate Ivelin Popov, a living legend of Bulgarian football. Popov then assisted the substitute Alekse Maraš, who found the back of the net for CSKA, securing Botev’s sixth victory of the season.
Alen Korošec received a high rating of 7.5 on the SofaScore website for his performance, making him the second highest-rated player on the field. Interestingly, he also covered the most distance (12.7 kilometers) and had the most sprints. He can boast a passing accuracy of 93%.
Botev is currently in a strong fourth place in the Bulgarian league table, and in the next round, they will face one of their biggest challenges of the current season. Botev will take on the leading Levski in Plovdiv, who, after 10 matches this season, has lost only once. This season, Alen Korošec has made 13 appearances across all competitions (scoring one goal and providing one assist). The match between Botev and Levski, who was once managed by Slaviša Stojanović, will take place on Saturday.
