"A very tough game awaits us in Mingachevir. Everyone understands how important and valuable this match is." These words were spoken to Sport24.az by Adil Shukurov, the head coach of "Sabail".
The experienced specialist shared his expectations from the match against "Mingachevir" in the last round of the First League:
"First of all, all our thoughts are on the upcoming game. Of course, the opponent is also seriously preparing for this meeting. Two of our main forwards in the squad – Ruslan Voronsov and Kamran Guliyev – will miss the game due to the yellow card limit. This is a big loss for us. Even Ruslan's absence alone was felt in our game in the match against "Shahdag Gusar." I think there are games where there is no need to give players extra motivation. Because such matches are worth a medal to be won in the future careers of both the team and the players. Everyone wants to see the result of the work done and the effort made throughout the season. God willing, we will fight to the end."
It should be noted that "Sabail" is in second place with 50 points. "Mingachevir" is third with 48 points. If "Sabail" wins or draws, they will retain second place. "Mingachevir" must win to finish the season in second place.
