A Bulgarian football club mistakenly held a moment of a silence for a former player who was actually stil alive.
Prior to the start of the match, both sides gathered at the centre circle, bowed their heads and paid respects to Arda club legend, Petko Ganchev.
Awkwardly enough, they quickly realised the mistake and posted a “huge apology” on social media.
“We wish Petko Ganchev many more years of good health and to enjoy the success of Arda,” the statement added.
Ganchev, who was at home, found his wife in tears as she hear the news on TV.
The gaffe went viral on social media.
