"In any case, "Qarabag" is the favorite of the pair. Our representative demonstrated a superior game in the first match (3:0) on the road, and almost decided the fate of the stage."
Idman.biz reports that these words were said by AFFA's technical director Jahangir Hasanzadeh in his statement to AZERTAC while talking about the return match between "Qarabag" and Ireland's "Shelbourne" teams in the second qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League today.
The expert said that he believes that the Aghdam representative will show their game and qualify for the next stage with a good result: "Of course, we expect a stronger "Qarabag" at home. I think they couldn't play the football they wanted because it was the beginning of the season. Therefore, we want to see a more fluent and orderly performance this time. However, the opponent is quite weak. Although they make a good impression as a team, the individual skills of the players are not at a high level. For this reason, the technical and tactical superiority of the Aghdam club is clearly felt. However, in the first match, we also saw that the players of the opposing team occasionally created dangerous situations in front of "Qarabag"'s goal. They were very close to scoring at times. It is likely that similar situations may occur in the match in Baku. That is why it is important for our team to perform with full attention and discipline. After this match, we should already think about the next opponent."
It should be noted that the "Qarabag" - "Shelbourne" match to be held at the Tofig Bahramov Republican Stadium will start at 20:00. The winner of this pair will face the winner of the FCSB (Romania) - "Shkendia" (North Macedonia) pair in the third qualifying round.
