A historic match for the Bulgarian national team was recalled in light of a World Cup milestone. This morning, the game between Tunisia and Japan made history as it marked the 1000th match in World Cup history. The "Samurai Blue" secured a dominant 4-0 victory.
To commemorate the occasion, FIFA published a list of all milestone matches at the World Cup. Bulgaria's clash against Argentina at USA '94, where they triumphed 2-0 with goals from Hristo Stoichkov and Nasko Sirakov, was highlighted as the 500th match.
Stoichkov watched the 100th match from the stands in Monterrey. From there, the legend sent "a big hug" to everyone. He reminisced about how the Bulgarian team etched their name in history with their performance in 1994. Stoichkov brought back memories of the match against Argentina and the magnificent victory.
