OFK Tryavna lost 1-0 to last classified Bdin 1923 Vidin and switch places at the bottom of the Bulgarian Third League - North-West

Sunday, the 22nd of November 2020, 2.30 pm local time (12.30 pm UTC), Georgi Benkovski Stadium, Vidin, Bulgarian, the 16th round of the Bulgarian Third League - North-West Group (Severozapadna Treta Liga).
OFK Tryavna suffered the eighth consecutive defeat in the Bulgarian Third League and this one was the most disappointing of them all, because they faced the weakest opponent possible, last classified Bdin 1923 Vidin. However, there is seemingly no weak opponent for OFK Tryavna, which are having an incredibly bad run, losing every single match, home or away (this time away), regardless of the opponent. It was only 1-0 for Vidin, a team which took the lead at the end of the first half by Yanek Kirilov (45') and stick to this small advantage until the end of the game, while OFK Tryavna were once again unable to score at least once.
Vidin: Vergilov - Nikolov (cpt.), Toshev, F. Georgiev, Stoykov, Milchev (Sokolov 70'), Kotsov, Mikhailov (V. Petrov 81'), Zahariev (Todorov 90'+2'), Kaishev, Kirilov.
Tryavna: Petrov - Hristov, Karakolev, Azisov, Veisov, Donchev (Shirtev 84'), Tosunov, Atanasov (S. Andreev 54'), N. Georgiev (Totev 62'), Tsonev, V. Andreev (cpt.).
Referee: Petar Ivanov.
Yellow cards: Stoykov 14', Milchev 43', Nikolov 68', Kaishev 83' - V. Andreev 14', Azisov 28', Hristov 32', S. Andreev 60', Veisov 77', Totev 85'.

It looks like relegation would be difficult to avoid for OFK Tryavna. It would be almost impossible, although there is still one match to be played before the winter break, at home against second place Spartak Pleven, and then the whole second half of the league in spring, 17 matches in all, but lots of points will have to be made to cover an ever increasing gap.
In the other matches, all favourites are wasting points, except for Levski 2020 Lom, a team which is consolidating their lead and are now 5 points away from the second place, and played one or two matches less than most of their rivals.
