After the "Qarabağ" - "Shamakhi" match (3:1) of the 1/4 final stage of the Azerbaijan Cup, Aykhan Abbasov, the head coach of the visiting team, answered journalists' questions. Sport24.az reports that the expert first shared his views on the meeting…
– The last minutes were upsetting. We knew the strength of "Qarabağ". We didn't start the game well, but then we were able to create opportunities. In the second half, we were expecting the opponent's pressure. Unfortunately, we made mistakes in those moments. If we could have taken advantage of the penalty in the last minute, maybe we would have had a chance. I thank the children. It is not easy to play every 4 days. We will prepare for the upcoming games.
– It seemed like Shuaybu wanted to take the penalty…
– Our penalty takers are Ricardo Apolinario and Karim Rossi. Karim had been able to take advantage of penalties for several games. It is fate.
– You had responded to the PFL. Did any reaction come?
– We had discussions. Everyone wants our fields to be good and for development to take place. Everyone wants this. We have had contact with people working at the PFL for a long time. We talked after the game. We resolved this issue well among ourselves. We understood each other.
