"We defeated "Shahdag Gusar" with difficulty. We knew this in advance. Because the opponent is a determined, well-organized team. Nevertheless, we were able to show the game we wanted and score the necessary goals." These words were said by "Shafa"'s head coach Elgiz Karamli in his statement to Sport24.az.
The young specialist commented on his team's match with "Shahdag Gusar" in the 9th round of the First League:
"We are trying to focus mainly on our own game. If we pay attention to the results of our opponents, we will not have time to prepare for the upcoming matches with all our strength. There is a 5-point difference between us and "Sabail", which is not that much. We will try to maintain at least this point difference until winter. After January, there will be 15 games. Each match has its own story. It is too early to talk about the championship now."
It should be noted that "Shafa", which has 23 points after 9 rounds of the I League, is the sole leader.
