"The game was not easy for us. After European Cup matches, the preparation level of football players drops by 30-40 percent. There are no conditions, no time."
Idman.Biz reports that these words were said by the head coach of "Garabagh" Gurban Gurbanov at the press conference held after the match of the 13th round of the Misli Premier League with "Karvan-Yevlakh".
The game ended 2:0 in favor of "Garabagh".
"It takes 3-4 games to get into rhythm so that they can distribute their strength. We don't want to take risks. Even though there are important games, we have to protect the players. We are ready to lose, rather than lose players.
As we approach the end of the year, the number of injuries increases. We have cup and championship matches ahead. Players have more responsibility to prepare themselves for these games. The championship is going a little differently, the teams are playing differently. Previously, teams made more mistakes in defense, now it is different," Gurbanov said.
