"Qarabag" fought very well against "Copenhagen" in Baku. Zubir's goal was very similar to the goal my student Mahir Emreli scored against the same team in 2017. It was a very similar struggle. I remembered that game and experienced that excitement again."
These words were said by Ibrahim Uzunca, the head coach of "Khankendi" and the teacher of Mahir Emreli, a member of the Azerbaijani national team, in his statement to futbolinfo.az.
The Turkish expert commented on Qarabag's 2-0 victory over Copenhagen in the second round of the main stage of the UEFA Champions League. He compared Abdullah Zubir's goal in the 28th minute to Mahir Emreli's goal in the group stage of the 2017 Champions League at the Tofig Bahramov Republican Stadium, which hit the post and went into the goal: "After the score became 1:0, Qarabag fought very well. They could have even increased the difference, they missed a few episodes. At the same time, they played more controlled in the second half without giving the opponent a chance. After the second goal, they relaxed. They deservedly won."
Uzunca expressed his belief that the Aghdam representative will continue the successful result: "I am proud of Qarabag. Thank you very much for making us proud. I hope that this team will be in the top 24. They are fighting worthy of the Champions League this season. I believe that their success will continue. In Turkey, "Galatasaray", and in Azerbaijan, "Qarabag" continues to make us proud."
