After the match "Sabail" - "Araz-Nakhchivan" (1:1) held in the XXXII round of the Misli Premier League, the head coach of the guest team, Elmar Bakhshiyev, answered journalists' questions. Sport24.az reports that the expert first shared his views on the game.
– We had 3 days after the cup. Since we played the last games every 4-5 days, the team showed a low level of play in terms of dynamics. It's the end of the championship. We hope to rest in the coming days and prepare for the next games.
– The team sits on the defense after scoring a goal. What is this related to?
– We don't instruct the team to sit on the defense. Our squad is not wide. I don't want to diminish the game shown by the players. I trust my players.
– Are you worried about losing third place?
– The team has been suffering throughout the season. We didn't get here at someone else's expense. We need to do more as a team.
– Does Turan Tovuz's continuous loss of points make you complacent?
– We want to make our team dependent on ourselves, not on the opponent.
– You have only one victory in the last 12 games. What do you see as the reason for your inability to take advantage of scoring opportunities?
– These processes are inevitable in football. We have 6 injured players. All of them are members of the main squad. Our team is working hard. Everything depends on us.
– Araz-Nakhchivan has scored the fewest goals this season. What is the reason for this?
– There have been games where we could have scored 6-7 goals. The team's low scoring is just statistics. We want to be more attacking. I'm not throwing words at anyone. Many people don't want to see the reality. If we go back to the last game, my protest should be taken normally. I have to share what I see with you. For me, there are injustices in the cup game. Someone can turn a blind eye. We are not the ones who decide. They will not try to keep us in any way.
