"I congratulate my players. It was an important victory. Every point lost could have made our job more difficult in the league table. We had a very good, very tough team in front of us. Success was on our side. The opponent was punished with a red card, and we gained the right to take a penalty. It seemed as if these things made our job a little easier."
Idman.biz reports that these words were said by Gurban Gurbanov, the head coach of "Qarabag," at the press conference held after the away match against "Araz-Nakhchivan" in the 5th round of the Azerbaijan Premier League.
The experienced specialist added that "Araz-Nakhchivan" has a very dangerous attacking line, and you can concede a goal at any moment: "My players were inattentive at some moments. But overall, I was satisfied with the course of the game. I thank our fans. At least they created a good atmosphere in the stadium. Although their numbers were small, there was support for the players until the end. I wish Elmar Bakhshiyev and his team success. He also answered questions from journalists."
Gurban Gurbanov also made an announcement regarding Ramil Sheydayev: "I think in the near future. We can gradually release him to the field in the upcoming matches. He has been doing individual training recently. However, he had a good preparation with his team before the start of the championship.
The head coach stated that looking at some pitches, the one they played on today was better: "The players were playing more comfortably. In the first half, the pitch seemed drier, there was no water, it hadn't been watered. Maybe it had been watered beforehand, but it had dried up due to the wind. The pitch was watered at half-time, and it was easier to handle the ball in the second half. As for the issue of injuries, when you think about it, perhaps such events happen more often to a person. We took steps according to the course of the game."
