It is difficult to justify the reason for Benfica's defeat.
According to "Report", the head coach of the Portuguese club, Bruno Lage, said this at a press conference.
The specialist shared his views at a press conference after the first leg match of the main stage of the UEFA Champions League against "Qarabag":
"It is difficult to justify the reason for the result. This was not the result we wanted. We started the game well, we played as we wanted for the first 30 minutes. Unfortunately, after conceding the first goal, we lost control. I think the team should recover after this defeat."
He answered the Portuguese journalist's question "Do you still want to continue your work?" in this way:
"Don't get me wrong. You are doing your job here, and I am doing my job. Today I am at a press conference to answer your questions."
It should be noted that the game "Benfica" - "Qarabag" ended with the victory of the Aghdam representative with a score of 3:2. After the final whistle of the match, local fans showed Bruno Lage a white flag, who left the field, and demanded his resignation.
