"It's an important result. The game could have gone into extra time."
Idman.Biz reports that these words were said by the head coach of "Qarabağ" club Gurban Gurbanov after the return match with "Shamakhi" in the 1/4 final stage of the Bizon Azerbaijan Cup.
The game ended with a score of 3:1 in favor of "Qarabağ". Based on the results of two games, the Aghdam club advanced to the semi-finals.
"We completely took control of the game in the second half. We made mistakes sometimes. Victory was very important. The players tried to play correctly. There was a little fatigue. They will slowly recover in the coming days.
It is not easy to play games on a tight schedule throughout the year. We are currently in a situation where there is no time to be calm. With each passing match, the demands also increase. Our goals are always high. This is the normal course of football life. Some players seem exhausted in the midst of this tension. We are trying to eliminate this as much as possible," - Gurbanov said.
