Bulgaria's CSKA to Face Liverpool in Champions League Clash

Sports | July 29, 2005, Friday // 00:00

The Liverpool team will most probably be the next rival of Bulgaria's CSKA in the qualifications for the Champions League.

Still, the Bulgarian champions will have to finish what they started with the KF Tirana. The Bulgarian team defeated the Albanians 2-0 and the return game is to take place in Sofia.

Liverpool, which beat A.C. Milan on penalties in last season's final, leads Lithuania's Kaunas 3-1 in the second qualifying round. If they negotiate the return leg of that match- up, the Reds will have a home game Aug. 9 or 10 and a second match Aug. 23 or 24 to be one of 32 teams competing in eight groups of four. Sofia leads Tirana 2-0.
