"As a team, our preparation for tomorrow's game is going well. We are trying to do our best."
Idman.biz reports that this was said by Elmar Bakhshiyev, the head coach of "Araz-Nakhchivan", at the press conference held before the first game of the 3rd qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League against "Omonia" (Cyprus).
- You have played against "Omonia" as the head coach of "Gabala"...
- We know the opponent. But it is not the team we played against with "Gabala". They have a different game style. As a team, we have analyzed the opponent. I think we have given the team the necessary information.
- Will we see a different "Araz-Nakhchivan" tomorrow?
- The opposing head coach knows what he is saying. I don't intend to answer him. I can talk about what my team wants to do on the field. We are ready for the game. The opponent we are facing is a respectable opponent. As a team, we believe that it is possible to achieve a successful result.
- Compared to "Aris", "Omonia"'s attacks are more effective. It is the team that scored the most goals in Cyprus. Igor Ribeiro will not be available tomorrow. Will there be a change in the defense plan? Who will play in tandem with Bakhtiyar Hasanalizade?
- You are doing good analysis. I appreciate this positively. You are analyzing the opponent. But in our understanding, there is no starting 11 and reserve force. Everyone at my disposal is preparing for the game. They are ready to give everything on the field. Whoever we rely on will try to give everything to the team.
- Will you make a system change?
- If you are suggesting a system change, we are not thinking about it (laughs). We do not change the system according to the opponent. As a team, we have our own ideas that we will try to implement.
- If you pass the "Omonia" barrier, can you hope for the league stage?
- We are now at a stage where we should think more about tomorrow, not the league stage. Let's go step by step. If it is destined, we will go there.
- The game will be broadcast live on a monitor in Nakhchivan tomorrow...
- Those who come to the stadium become the 12th player. Before the trip, they also asked us how the team would play in front of crowded stands in Greece. My players also wanted to feel the army of fans. I appeal to the fans, don't leave us alone tomorrow, believe in us. As a team, we will try to make them happy.
