The Champion Levski continued towards the second consecutive title, passing by Ovcha Kupel neighbourhood in Sofia and crushing Slavia with 3:0. The second team in the ranking Lokomotiv (Sf) went on in “full speed” and came off clear as a guest from Varna’s bay and had a victory with 2:0 against Spartak.

Bardon captured the “white” stronghold for the first time in 26th minute when he opened his way to the centre and sent the ball into the net of Armen Ambartsumyan from the borderline of the penalty area – 1:0. Only 4 minutes later the French halfback made the result 2:0 as he met a centre kick of Dimitar Telkiiski, while in Slavia’s defence chaos was established. In the remaining play hour Levski did not let the rival to threaten the victory. Hristo Yovov from the champions’ team hit the beam and before Bardon was changed he scored his third goal with a head after a corner-kick and ricochet. Slavia had not had a victory against Levski for three years. The “Whites” played without the punished forwards Todor Kolev.
