The Bulgaria men's national team secured a 98-88 victory over Armenia in a EuroBasket 2027 qualification match on November 28, 2025. This hard-earned win on home soil was crucial for Bulgaria's hopes of advancing to the next stage of the European Championship qualifiers. Bulgaria relied on a strong inside presence and efficient three-point shooting to build a steady lead throughout the game. Armenia, however, proved to be resilient opponents, repeatedly closing the gap with their own sharp outside shooting and never allowing Bulgaria to fully pull away. The key sequence came in the fourth quarter when Bulgaria strung together several defensive stops and converted them into fast-break points, finally creating a double-digit cushion that Armenia could not overcome. Bulgaria's captain led by example with a team-high scoring performance. The 98-88 result gives Bulgaria a valuable two points in the qualifying group standings, while Armenia showed enough fight to suggest they can be competitive in their remaining fixtures.
