The football clubs Ludogorets and Ferencvaros ended in a nil-nil draw in their first match in Bulgaria's Razgrad of the third qualifying round of the Champions League.

The Hungarians started the match better and had the upper hand in the first half, but the Bulgarian football champion also missed good chances in front of the guests’ goal. In the 23rd minute, Ferencvaros scored a goal, which after video control was canceled due to offside.

In the 41st minute, the crossbar saved the Hungarians from defeat. In the second half, the Bulgarian team had superiority on the field, but failed to materialize it with goals.

The return match, which will be played in a week in Hungary, will decide which of the two teams will continue to the playoffs for entry into the Champions League.
