Football / Soccer / Calcio / Futebol / Fußball

Just to give a bit of context here:

• the BFU (Bg football union) is universally hated and football fans of all factions were organizing a protest against them (in social media mostly) during the Hungary game.
• The BFU then contacted the Sofia police and had them issue a statement that the game faces "potential unrest" (based on what they saw on facebook!). They sent this to UEFA (BFU chief Bobby the Wig is good pals with Ceferin), and UEFA immediately "advised" for game behind closed doors. This was likely staged in advance.
• Now BFU decides to move the game from Sofia to Plovdiv, to be played behind closed doors. However, they fail to note that Plovdiv stadium has scheduled construction works, so the stadium director rejects the fixture, citing security reasons.
• BFU don't want to be exposed as the idiots that they are, so the BFU technical director, Gonzo (real nickname), calls the stadium director and threatens that the license of the club that plays on this stadium will be revoked, if the fixture isn't played.
• However, the stadium director doesn't budge and issues a statement on the stadium condition which is sent to the Plovdiv mayor (the municipality owns the stadium) who officially rejects the fixture. It's just a few days before the game now, schedule changes are hard if not impossible.
• Bobby the Wig gets desperate and threatens that UEFA will get Bulgaria kicked out of European football due to government involvement in football. Fans laugh at him saying that it would be a blessing given the state of our football.
