Dissatisfaction from Gurbanov: "Should I say it was a free kick?"

After the game between "Qarabagh" and "Turan Tovuz" (1:2) in the XX round of the Misli Premier League, the head coach of the home team, Gurban Gurbanov, answered journalists' questions. Sport24.az reports that the specialist first expressed his views on the match...   - We didn't want to lose. But my players were able to dominate for almost 90 minutes. But football has such ugly sides. I congratulate "Turan Tovuz".   - You have conceded 4 goals from corners in the last 2 games... - I answered about the last game. But I don't know how this happens. What should happen if there are 5 players around the goalkeeper inside the penalty area and they block him? What does the chairman of the Referees Committee think about this? For several games, such cases have occurred in both corners and free kicks. I even talk to the players about this before the game. But if the goalkeeper is untouchable, I don't know what happens if they touch him here. We understood that the 2nd goal was from our mistake. But the 1st goal... it's as if the referees take such goals lightly. If you look at the episode, he pushes our player with his hand. Such cases happen not only to us, but in all games. Of course, this is not the reason for our defeat. But this time... They throw our players aside with both hands. I was annoyed by this. I watched the episode 10 times. Faig Hajiyev's task was to touch the goalkeeper at all. They squeezed Shahruddin from all sides. Anyway, such cases happen. I congratulate the opponent. They were eager.   - You probably don't think that the referees are biased against you? - They are irresponsible. Javid Jalilov is a good boy. But there should not be such a simple approach. People suffer for weeks, months. We conceded goals from simple episodes. Should I say there was a free kick there?   - Will you raise this issue in the Executive Committee you are a member of? - There is no need. That is not the place for such things. Such episodes are discussed with the chairman of the Referees Committee. Responsibility is very important. Because here we have to pay for what we get. Everyone should approach it with this thought. Including the referee. There were some episodes that were normal. It is understandable if no danger is seen. Maybe there are few such tense games. Again, this is not the reason for our defeat. But I feel sorry for the efforts of my players. Hopefully we should prepare for other games.   - How would you assess the psychological state of your players? - I think the players were very good. We just needed to be a little more prepared. They would have given it if they had it. I asked about the first episode, it wasn't there. I don't know about the other one.   - Is the news about your departure from the IC true? - Please don't ask me about this. There is nothing yet. Believe me, I can't even find time at home. But work home, home work.   - Today, after Musa Gurbanli left the field, Yassin Benzia played as a forward. Do you have anything in mind regarding this in your future plans? - Not in all games, we will use him in attack.   - Are there any players you are specifically negotiating with? - No, there have been no negotiations. Maybe 20 days ago we were interested in 2 players. We had a conversation and it stayed there.   - Is the team you have enough to become a champion at the end of the season? - We have no other way out. We don't want to transfer by number. It is not easy to adapt a player to the team. Mentally, it is difficult for him to adapt to the club and the country. This has happened many times. You see that he could not adapt to us, but he performed better in other championships. It is not easy to play in "Qarabagh". Both championship and participation in European Cups are required. We are very careful. Our budget is not like big clubs. Championship is difficult. If there are a few such games, the championship can be lost. Such cases happen in the "Top-5" countries. You can't relax. I didn't see it in my players either. We had 3 points in our hands for 90 minutes. It was lost in 2 minutes. I can gather the current team better than the new ones.   - What do you think about your opponent in the Europa League, "Olympiacos"? - "Olympiacos" is a strong opponent. One of the fastest playing teams. But we have to prepare. I think we will play more comfortably. Because there will be less stress. We had good games this season, but our results were not good. Now we have to protect the players we have.
