An interview with Aleksandr Ramalingom, the forward of "Sumgayit", to Sport24.az
– How would you comment on the defeat to "Imishli"...
– The state of the pitch in Guba is not encouraging. It was difficult to show the game we wanted. Although we had goal-scoring opportunities, we could not take advantage of them and the opponent opened the score.
– What do you attribute the result to?
– It was bad luck to some extent. As a team, we will work harder. The main thing in football is to always stay focused.
– What was preventing you from scoring?
– If we look closely at the game, we can see that many players were slipping. This was observed even with quality boots. It was extremely difficult to control the ball or change direction.
– Even though you lost, it is expected that 3 points will be added to your team's assets because "Imishli" did not follow the protocol rules...
– Whether or not a technical defeat, 3 points will be awarded will depend on the decision of AFFA. They will determine whether this was a mistake or not.
- In the next round, the opponent is "Neftchi". What are your expectations?
- "Neftchi" is a very strong team. However, we can beat them. We will do our best.
