"Our goal is the championship, we have formed a squad accordingly."
These words were said by Elgiz Keremli, the head coach of "Shafa", a representative of the First League, in his statement to the futbolinfo.az website.
The specialist spoke about his team's first place with 15 points after five rounds:
"The level of each league is increasing year by year. The financial situation of the clubs has improved, and many players from the Premier League have been transferred to the First League. These factors have led to the strengthening of the clubs. We have no problems with the squad, we have two quality players in each position. Not only with "Sabail", but also with other clubs, the games are difficult. Therefore, we treat each opponent with respect and prepare very seriously for the games."
Let us remind you that "Shafa" and "Sabail", the main contenders of the First League, will face each other in the next round. The Bayil representative, who will be a guest of the leader, is in second place with 13 points.
