Champion Levski Sofia defeated vice-champion Lokomotiv Avia (Plovdiv) with 3:1 (26:28, 25:23, 25:21, 25:20) and won the efbet Supercup of Bulgaria 2025 in a full "Levski Sofia" hall. This is the third consecutive trophy in the competition for "the Blues" after victories over Hebar (2023) and Deya Sport (2024).
The two teams reached the final after decisive semi-final victories of 3:0 each – Levski over Beroe 2016, and Lokomotiv against Neftochimic 2010.
The final was officiated by experienced referees Ivaylo Ivanov and Lyubomir Sirakov.
Lokomotiv started stronger and won the first set after an evenly matched end – 28:26. In the next three sets, however, Nikolay Zhelyazkov's team imposed a more aggressive game in attack and serve, led by Gordan Lyutskanov and Todor Skrimov, and turned the match around.
In the second set, "the Blues" snatched the victory with 25:23, and in the third set, a series of excellent blocks and Skrimov's powerful serve brought a complete turnaround – 25:21. Levski also dominated in the fourth set, took an early lead, and left no chance for their opponent – 25:20.
The great Matey Kaziyski was quite logically chosen as the Audience Player of the efbet Supercup of Bulgaria 2025 tournament in a poll on the social networks of the National Volleyball League (NVL).
Gordan Lyutskanov was chosen as MVP.
