never thought anyone outside of Bulgaria knew who he was, and it's especially satisfying when the one that actually does is a channel which I've been subscribed to since it began really (HITC sport og's where you at) Even though I'm a rival fan I still love it❤
Many, many thanks for the accurate and unbiased historic representation! I cannot confirm whether it is a fact or a rumour, but Gundi's child went up to Eusebio asking for an autograph and the Legend declined him saying - "You are Gundi's son, could I have your autograph, please? " In my opinion he would have been more famous would have it not been for communism. In short... f*** it , that is what Levski Sofia stands for!
Thank you for the occasional longer in-depth videos. They are always interesting and educational. I pity those without the attention span or intelligence to appreciate them.
Thousands of people flooded the streets of Sofia on Asparuhov and Kotkov's funeral. Different sources say between 150-500.000 people. The communists got scared that a football player gathered so much attention. The man was a legend, it's very sad that he died so young. He could've done much more on the field and maybe even more as a coach or a boss.
I think people would appreciate if you made a video about Hugo Sotil. The Peruvian legend that was Barcelona’s #10 for a couple of seasons and scored against Real Madrid.
Hey, big fan here. I realize that these types of videos don't really get the views that you would hope, but I really hope you could do a video like this about Nicolae Dobrin (Romania). I am pretty sure that what Asparuhov was/is to Bulgaria, Dobrin was to Romania. His story is unfortunately very similar too, with the communists not letting him reach his peak (he was wanted by Real Madrid).
@Darth Vader there are Bulgarian players from previous eras better than Berbatov - Hristo Bonev, Dimitar Yakimov. However they played only in Bulgaria, so they are not so well known.
@@todorvranchev2091 i'd say he comes 2nd in ability. in actual achievement i'd concede it's stoitchkov but berbatov has way more ability than stoitchkov does.

if you had searched you wouldn't speak bullshit. He was nominated for Ballon d'Or, he even has 9 points, behind Gianni Rivera from AC Milan with 10 points. This is also confirmed on Wikipedia, you just have to search for it, don't be biased just because he was from Levski, and not from CSKA.

Aaah no one knows about him! One goal against Hungary(wembley"66) and another one against England...but have you ever seen something?! so I can say sugar s sweet, but Stoichkov is Stoichkov!!!
This is a very controversial topic. Even though the class of Gundi is undoubtable, Asparuhov was one of the victims of FC Levski’s goal to make CSKA’s players, who at that time were playing European Cup semi-final against Inter, less powerful in the media and also to create a competitor to some of CSKA’s players like Peter Zhekov(Golden boot winner), Dimitar Yakimov(The Bulgarian Garrincha), Dimitar Penev and ext. The journalists in the media at that time were mainly Levski fans and sometimes you can see journalists from Lokomotiv Sofia or Slavia, but that was it. So as you may have guessed Gundi was described as some sort of God. Because Asparuhov was an intelligent person, in one interview, where the journalists were of course having a completely different attitude towards him, Gundi said ,,You should write about Yakimov, he is the real star of Bulgaria”
Stoichkov is extreamly overrated and hyped!!! Asparuhov had better physic, better dribbling and scoring skills, better control on the ball and also he was a god with the ball on his head!!

Hi Super Sport Gaming, we've done this one not long ago! Here's a link: th-cam.com/video/yVgeOzNb-es/w-d-xo.html
no question he was better than stoitchkov. much more rounded as a player. he could play in any position and his headers were incomparable
Football was so much more pure back then
Make a video about Mokhtar Dahari... One of best footballer in asia that no one knows
Asparukhov, Stoichkov, and Berbatov.
Maybe you could show some goals during these longer vids for the people who are watching
