"Qarabag" won against "Karvan-Yevlakh" with a score of 2:0 in the 3rd round of the Premier League.
Idman.biz reports that the head coach of the country's champion, Gurban Gurbanov, shared his thoughts on the game at a press conference.
He said that they did not win easily: "It is not easy to motivate football players in such conditions, on such a field. But they still managed. It was an important game for us. I thank my players. We had a lot of fans. I am also grateful to them. I wish Azer Hashimov success. They are participating in the Premier League with a new team. They also played their previous games at a very good level. They built a very good game today, and they also created a lot of dangerous episodes in front of our goal. Gradually, they will have a better team and better results.
We had to get out of the European Cup match, that atmosphere, and play in such conditions today. That's why I said that after the match with "Ferencvaros", it was not easy to motivate the players for this game. But such cases have been happening for years. We would like to have a better pitch and more fans. These two factors are very important for football players. After the break, we will prepare for the game with Benfica.
There is no serious problem with Dani Montiel. He is just not ready. He had not trained with the team for more than six months, he had been preparing individually. He is still far from sports form. True, he has joined training with the team. But he is not yet strong enough to play such games. It will take more time. I believe that he will slowly recover during the break given to the championship. In the upcoming matches, he will have a chance to enter the game later, not from the first minutes.
Negotiations are underway regarding the transfer of Samba Sumano and Juninho to "Qarabag". We have made a serious offer. Since we have reached the main stage of the Champions League, the other side may have started to go higher. We are also negotiating. We have little time. In any case, negotiations will continue until the last minute. Suddenly, the negotiations became very difficult."
