"Expectations are high. I expect improvement from some players. There will be an interesting and intense fight both at the top and at the bottom. We will ask the players to show their maximum. The most important thing is not to lose. I expect my players to turn this development into a result." These words were said by Aykhan Abbasov, the head coach of "Shamakhi", in his statement to Sport24.az.
The head coach shared his thoughts on the players who joined the team during the winter break: "We know Jalal Huseynov. He played in "Shamakhi" and is a promising football player. We believe in him. Murad Valiyev is also a young player and has played for the U-21 national team. I also know Vusal Masimov. We want competition in that position. The legionnaire Andrey-Kostin needs time. The championship in Canada ended 2 months ago and he is not fully ready yet. Mixael Tike Dias Santos also needs about 2 weeks. After that, we want to make 2 transfers. We said goodbye to several players. We want to fill their places so that we don't have difficulties in case of injury or punishment."
It should be noted that the "lions", who faced "Zira" in a test match during the break, left the field defeated - 1:3.
