The Macedonian Football Federation is finishing the negotiations with the Nigerian Football Associatiation for scheduling a friendly match that will be played on Wednesday, 22 August 2007 on the "Gradski" stadium in Skopje.
Football in Macedonia – 2007/08 season started
On August 5th, the 16th season of the Macedonian First Football League kicked off. Interesting like never before with many teams aiming for the top positions on the table and no real relegation candidate yet. Let's hope that this will bring quality football, bigger attendance and less scandals.
Rabotnicki qualify, Vardar eliminated
Rabotnicki Kometal qualified for the second qualifying round of the UEFA Cup after another 2:1 win over the Slovenian club Hit Gorica. Vardar were eliminated on Cyprus by Anorthosis Famagusta with another 1:0 defeat. In the next round Rabotnicki will face Partizan from Belgrade or the Bosnian Zrinjski.
Hristov in Den Bosch, Bajevski in Mechelen
Two strikers and former members of the Macedonian national team have moved in new clubs. Gjorgi Hristov, the current leading striker of the Macedonian national team signed for the Dutch club Den Bosch and Aleksandar Bajevski signed for the Belgian KV Mechelen.
Pobeda eliminated
Macedonia will be without representative in the European Champions League after the elimination of the Macedonian champion Pobeda from Prilep. In the second match away to the Estonian Levadia from Tallinn, Pobeda only drew 0:0 and Levadia qualified for the next stage after the 0:1 win in Prilep.
Rabotnicki wins, Vardar defeated
Rabotnicki will return home with big advantage because of the 1:2 win away to Nova Gorica in Slovenia, while Vardar were unluckily defeated in the last minutes with a goal from dubious offside position by the Cypriot club Anorthosis.
Pobeda Prilep – Levadia Tallin 0:1
Pobeda lost in front of their fans in Prilep with 0:1 by the Estonian champion Levadia from Tallin in their first match this season. With this result, the match with Crvenza Zvezda from the second qualifying round of the Champions League will stay just as a dread for Pobeda's players and fans.
Makedonija GP eliminated
Makedonija GP confirmed their elimination from the UEFA Intertoto Cup with another defeat in the second leg match against Cherno More Varna from Bulgaria. The Bulgarian club won with 3:0 and with the 7:0 on aggregate score, Makedonija GP finished their European excursion for this season.
Wandeir moves to Portugal
The captain of Vardar, Brazilian-born striker and former member of the Macedonian national team, Wandeir dos Santos moves to Portugal in the team of Naval Primeiro de Maio. The former best striker of the Macedonian league has signed a 2 years long contract.
Unsuccessful football factory
Unsuccessful football factory as the Macedonian First League, expectingly produces low quality products. The best football players leave Macedonia for "few" dollars in comparison for the amount of money that is spent on the football market in the rest of the world.
