Charity soccer game "Match of Hope" will take place today, September 6, on Bulgaria's Unification Day, at 5 pm at the Vasil Levski National Stadium. It is organized by the foundation of Bulgarian footballer Stiliyan Petrov, who is former captain of the national team. The collected funds will be used for the treatment of cancer patients. Petrov himself suffered from leukemia years ago.

The match will feature stars of Bulgarian and world football over the past decades. The date was chosen especially to show that only united we can win the big battles in life, the organizers explain.
