"We will play against a very good team. I can only say good things about "Shelbourne". I watched their performance live. They have a unique playing style and players who execute it correctly."
Idman.biz reports that this was said by Gurban Gurbanov, the head coach of "Qarabag", at the press conference held before the first match of the II qualifying round of the Champions League against "Shelbourne" (Ireland).
The experienced specialist shared his thoughts on the match: "They are very disciplined and physically strong. They are more prepared than us in terms of game practice. Because their championship is ongoing, and they have played two matches in the Champions League qualifying round. The opponent looks very motivated. They are dangerous in standard situations. They have a team that fully reveals its abilities and complements each other. Due to all these factors, we will try to perform as flawlessly as possible in tomorrow's match."
The head coach also spoke about the reason why the team has extensive experience in European Cups and advances to the group stage every year: "As a club, we approach our work responsibly. The work is organized at the leadership level so that the success achieved must be repeated at least every year. We have always tried to have a motivated team. Despite some changes, we have been able to preserve it. Of course, there are problems, sometimes we cannot achieve the desired result. But we consider playing in the group stages for 11 years a great success."
