Is that true:

"Euroidiots" is a popular, ironic name of the Bulgarian football club PFC Levski (Sofia). It first appeared in several European newspapers after the match between Antwerp and Levski (UEFA Cup 89/90, 1st round). In this match Levski were leading with 3:1 till the 89th minute and then Antwerp managed to score three goals in the next 5 minutes. The match finished 4:3 for Antwerp and they were through after the first leg 0:0 in Sofia.

  1. Yes, it is true, that nickname was given to them by the European press after that match. More precisely, they were called "The football idiots of Europe", the "Euroidiots" nickname is a shortened version of that. I'm citing the video of the game in question as source.
