"Our coach doesn't need to additionally motivate the team. We are professional players and we know what to do."
This was stated by "Qarabağ" football player Emmanuel Addai in an interview with Sport24.az.
We present the interview:
- In the VII round of the Premier League, you won 1:0 against "Kəpəz" at home. What can you say about the game?
– I think a few players in the squad were ready for this match. We must always be ready. But, as it turned out, we didn't understand what was happening on the field. It was a bit of a difficult match. I don't know, maybe it was because the opponent changed their head coach. But thank God we were able to score.
- You distinguished yourself in the match against "Copenhagen" in the Champions League. What is the atmosphere in the team after that match? How do you feel?
- I felt great. First of all, I want to thank God for everything, as well as my coach, my team and everyone. It was great to win and it made me happy to see everyone happy about it. I am also happy when the country I play in is happy. It was an incredible victory.
– You have scored 6 points after two games. Can we already think about the next stage?
- Of course. The goal is to qualify for the next stage. We knew we were ready for the Champions League and our desire is to go as far as we can.
– There will be a break due to national team matches. Can this period affect the team's rhythm?
- No, we are all ready. Our coach doesn't need to additionally motivate the team. We are professional players and we know what to do. We prepare for everything quietly. We are not even thinking about the next championship game, our focus is on the match against "Athletic".
– The stadium was full at the "Copenhagen" game. But there were few fans in this match. How did this difference affect you?
- What can I say? Sometimes my throat hurts, sometimes my throat hurts (laughs). But the most important thing is the championship. I enjoy playing in the championship. Sometimes I really enjoy being in this league. It was also interesting for me that the goal was chosen a little bit easily.
- You distinguished yourself in the match against "Copenhagen" and that goal was chosen as the best of the round. Were you expecting this?
- I was always waiting for that goal. But not for myself, for the fans. I think the moment I wanted to score that goal, I already knew it would go into the goal. I really needed that goal.
