Bulgaria charged over conduct

Saturday, June 19, 2004

The Bulgarian Football Union has been charged over the improper conduct of its team in the defeat by Denmark.

Date set
Rosen Kirilov, Marian Hristov, Martin Petrov, Ilian Stoianov and Zlatomir Zagorcic were booked in addition to captain Stilian Petrov who was dismissed in the 82nd minute for a second yellow. The case will be heard by the UEFA control and disciplinary body tomorrow.

Two suspended
Kirilov was also cautioned in Bulgaria's opening 5-0 defeat by Sweden and will miss their final Group C game against Italy on Tuesday along with Stilian Petrov. Last night's defeat at the Estádio Municipal de Braga means Bulgaria have no chance of reaching the quarter-finals.
