"We started the game very well. We had good attacks. We just lacked accuracy. The opponent's skill quality was higher than ours".
Idman.Biz reports that this was stated by the head coach of "Qarabag" Gurban Gurbanov at a press conference after the match against "Atletico" in the third round of the main stage of the UEFA Champions League.
"Atletico" can press for 90 minutes, and our players were under more pressure than in the game against "Benfica". Although we played well in attack, we couldn't finish the game the way we wanted. There is no such strong pressure in our league, but they are more used to it in the Spanish championship. The opponent forces you to make mistakes," Gurbanov said.
The head coach also spoke about the games they will play in the tournament: "We continue our fight. Opponents will also want to win to score points, to increase their chances of advancing to the next stage. We must be ready for everything. We must play more disciplined in the upcoming matches."
It should be noted that the "Atletico" - "Qarabag" match ended with a 3:1 victory for the home team.
