"The football idiots of Europe" (in short, "Euroidiots") is a popular, ironic name of the Bulgarian football club PFC Levski (Sofia), formerly Vitosha (Sofia). It first appeared in several European media after the match between Royal Antwerp and Levski (UEFA Cup 89/90, 1st round). In this match Levski were leading with 3:1 until the 89th minute and then Antwerp managed to score three goals in the next 5 minutes with 10 men on the field. The match finished 4:3 for Antwerp and they were through after the first leg 0:0 in Sofia.
As a result of Levski's fiasco, on September 26, 1989, the popular European Sports Channel "Eurosport" began their evening UEFA match overview with Levski's game by referring to them as "the football idiots of Eurpope". On the following day, the French sports newspaper "L'Equipe" once again referred to Levski as the "Euroidiots" for their fiasco against Royal Antwerp. Most recently, the Spanish newspaper "El Mundo Deportivo" referred to Levski Sofia as "El Debil" before Levski's Europa League game with Villareal. "El Débil" is the Spanish translation of "The Idiots" - "El Villarreal se estrena ante el débil Levski"
Following a series of disasters in the European football tournaments, various newspapers and sport websites in Bulgaria have continuously referred to Levski Sofia as the "Euroidiots".
