Ludogorets secured a 1:0 win over Dinamo Minsk in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League first qualifying round, played in Razgrad. Ludogorets' new signing Filip Kaloc scored in the 87th minute.

The Bulgarian team faced strong resistance from the Belarusian champions, and the match seemed to be heading for a goalless draw. Five minutes before the end, the Czech midfielder, recently transferred from Kaiserslautern, found the net in his debut match for Ludogorets, delighting fans at Huvepharma Arena.

Before the goal, Ludogorets players hit the crossbar twice, while Dinamo Minsk also had two clear chances to score. The second leg is scheduled to take place next week in Hungary.
