In a shocking display of dominance, Dobrudzha obliterated Bdin in the Round of 32 of the Bulgarian Cup, emerging victorious with a lopsided score of 7-2 at Stadion Georgi Benkovski on October 28, 2025. The win not only marks a dramatic shift in momentum for Dobrudzha, but it also raises questions about Bdin's prospects in this season's cup competition.
The match got off to a blistering start, with Dobrudzha taking the lead just five minutes in through Jhonatan Cuero. Following his early strike, Aykut Ramadan doubled the advantage in the 12th minute, leaving Bdin's defense scrambling. Despite the overwhelming pressure, Bdin managed to claw one back in the 26th minute, giving their supporters a brief glimmer of hope. However, that hope evaporated just a few moments into the second half when Dobrudzha unleashed a barrage of goals.
In a frenzied five-minute spell, Dobrudzha found the back of the net three times between the 53rd and 59th minutes, further widening the gulf between the two teams. As if that wasn't enough, they added another goal in the 80th minute, bringing their total to seven. Bdin did manage to score again in the final minutes, but it was little more than a consolation in light of the crushing defeat.
This match could not have come at a more critical time for Dobrudzha, whose recent league form had been disheartening, with four consecutive losses leading into this cup tie. Their previous outing just three days prior ended in a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Levski Sofia, underscoring a desperate need for a turnaround. The victory against Bdin not only allows them to advance in the cup but might just reinvigorate their faltering campaign in the First League.
On the other side, Bdin entered the match with a modest win over Kom Berkovitsa in the Third League, possibly leading their followers to believe they could conjure some magic against a struggling side. However, the reality is stark: this defeat adds to their string of poor results, raising concerns about their ability to compete effectively moving forward. With only one win in their last six matches and relegation looming on the horizon, the pressure is mounting on Bdin to turn their season around before it's too late.
Reflecting on the pre-match predictions-where I confidently suggested a low-scoring encounter with Bdin squeezing out a narrow win-it is clear that cup clashes can be unpredictable. Instead of a gritty stalemate, we witnessed a spectacle of offensive fireworks from Dobrudzha, turning expectations on their head.
As both teams head back to their respective leagues, the stakes have dramatically shifted. Dobrudzha will be aiming to leverage this momentum to snap their consistent losing streak in the First League. For Bdin, the path forward will require a serious reassessment if they hope to salvage what remains of their season in both league and cup competitions.
