"First of all, I want to congratulate our fans. They were truly magnificent. They deserved the victory."
Idman.biz reports that these words were said by the head coach of "Qarabagh" FK Gurban Gurbanov in his statement to CBC Sport after the game with "Copenhagen".
"I thank my players. Although there was a little misunderstanding in the second half, the opponent changed the system a little, they could not fully take control of the situation in 15-20 minutes of the game. But gradually they were able to meet the opponent in any zone. We had several good counter-attack episodes, but we lacked a little accuracy. These games are like this: here you only know that you win after the final whistle. This is the Champions League, any result can happen. Very nice, very magnificent, I congratulate everyone," said Gurbanov.
He added that he did not actually expect such a result at the start of the League: "I did not fully expect such a result, that is, two wins from two games. But I believed in my players. I was just wary of the reputation of the tournament that the players would not be able to show their skills. But each of them adapted to the tournament from the first game."
The coach also spoke about the next game they will play with "Athletic".
We have not fully watched the games of "Athletic Bilbao" yet, we need to prepare more properly for the upcoming games. Now the opponents will be 100% responsible against us, maybe even more. But we will try to enjoy this tournament by showing a disciplined game," said Gurbanov.
Let us remind that the "Qarabagh" - "Copenhagen" game within the II round of the main stage of the UEFA Champions League ended with a 2:0 victory of the Aghdam club. The next game of Aghdam residents with "Athletic" will be on October 22 at the opponent's field.
