Not good results by our youngest national team in the two road friendly games against Bulgaria.

In the first game played on Wednesday Macedonia recorded a 2:0 defeat. Right in the 3rd minute Bulgaria took the lead, but luckily a disaster did not happen as they added a second just 5 minutes from time.

The second match proved to be a bigger failure for the young Macedonians as this time the hosts celebrated with 3:0. Again Macedonia failed to score at least one goal and again Bulgaria broke the dead lock in the opening minutes.

Game 1 highlights:

Both games were held at the Struma stadium in the town of Simitli, not in Blagoevgrad as many Macedonian media reported.
