The Bulgarian national team and the legend Hristo Stoichkov played their farewell match at the Nou Camp stadium this Saturday, where the legendary Barcelona team and the World team met.
In the Barcelona team, which was led this time by another living club legend, Dutchman Johan Cruyff, stars like Rivaldo, who had recently left the club, played.
Another former Barcelona strategist, current coach Sir Bobby Robson, was at the helm of the World team. In his team, played world football veterans such as Croatian Davor Suker, Brazilian Djalminha, and Romanian Dan Petrescu.
Before the match, Bulgarian President Georgi Parvanov and Barcelona President Joan Laporta presented Stoichkov with commemorative gifts. The famous Spanish tenor Jose Carreras dedicated a song to him.
An interesting fact is that the match was refereed by former FIFA and UEFA referee Atanas Uzunov, who was the first witness at Stoichkov's wedding.
