Mondays game in Sofia was discontinued because of racist abuse directed at Englands black players.
But after the game Balakov, 53, said hedidnt hear anything.
Im no more national team coach, Balakov told social media after a meeting of the Bulgarian Football Union on Friday.
Bulgarian governments have identified 16 supposes and made 12 arrests following the game.
Four supporters received two-year bans and fines together with others staying under evaluation, on Thursday.
I want success to another trainer, the situation is not rosy at the moment, added Balakov.
Ive been a mentor in such an atmosphere.
I attempted to pick up the players in the locker room. There was no rebellion.
The players were so mentally stressed by what was occurring on the pitch that they lacked the energy .
Balakov said on Monday night:I had been concentrated on the match.
I didnt actually hear anything but I just talked to the English press downstairs and I advised them if this is proven to be accurate, then we have to be ashamed and we have to apologise for it.
However, once more, first it needs to be proven to be true.
