Bulgarian Prime Minister Boiko Borissov had four stitches in his forehead after being slightly injured in a football match on February 13 2011, bTV reported.

Borissov, a keen amateur footballer who has made several appearances - especially in charity matches - during his days as Interior Ministry chief secretary, later mayor of Sofia and currently head of government - has been injured previously.

In May 2009, he missed most of the final weeks of the national parliamentary elections after breaking his leg in a football match.
