Young Bulgarian football star Dimitar Berbatov is in the limelight in an article published on UEFA's official cite and dedicated to Saturday's match against Iceland.

The author of the article Stefбn Stefбnsson points out that Berbatov scored twice to ensure Hristo Stoitchkov's Bulgaria began their Group 8 2006 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign with a comfortable victory away to Iceland in Reykjavik.

According to the author Bulgaria's victory was intended to make up for the disappointing showing at UEFA EURO 2004.

Bulgaria triumphed over host Iceland 3:1 in the opening match of World Cup 2006 qualifying campaign. Forward Berbatov scored two of the goals, while his team-mate Hristo Yanev netted the third goal.
