The home side slumped to a 0:2 defeat as Dutchman Virgil Misidjan shot against the post when free inside the box, but was on end to tap in the rebound.

Ludogorets left a mark in Europe's second most prestigious club tournament after falling out of the qualifying rounds for the Champions League to Swiss champions FC Basel.

The other two teams in this Group B are Croatian Dinamo Zagreb and Ukranian Chernomorets Odessa.
