The players of Vidabasket knew their away game in Sofia wasn't going to be an easy one, despite the 4 consecutive losses Slavia had amassed. But the visitors surely didn't expect to lose by an almost 20 point margin. That was exactly what happened though - 101-82. Yet, the team from Vidin keeps second place in the Division A table, now with a 5-2 record.
 
The home team defied the odds and expectations from the very beginning of tonight's game and led the scores throughout. Kiril Kukov's players managed to score a team total of 15 triples on 44.1 % distance shooting. 6 of those were netted by youth national team player Yovcho Atanasov, who came off the bench to achieve a career high efficiency rating of 30 (28 pts, 7 rbs).
 
Jordan Yankov (with 4 more three-pointers) and Lubomir Zhechev scored 22 pts each for Slavia's success.
