"We witnessed a competitive game. Both teams did a good job."
Idman.Biz reports that these words were said by the head coach of "Araz-Nakhchivan", Elmar Bakhshiyev, after the game against "Turan Tovuz" in the next round of the Misli Premier League.
The match ended in a 1:1 draw.
"In some moments, we were the ones dictating the game. "Turan Tovuz" should also be emphasized. After putting pressure, they created episodes. We knew what to expect. "Turan Tovuz" is a tough team. I think both teams earned 1 point today.
We did not instruct the team to protect the score. When the players are ahead in the score, they psychologically pay more attention to defense. We were also attacking. There was aggression. We just couldn't evaluate the episodes correctly. The opponent managed to change the game after substitutions in the second half. Both teams played well today," said the head coach.
