– As a football player, you played 4 games against "Neftchi". Today you were their opponent as a coach…
– I remember those games. The feelings were different in those matches, I was a football player. "Neftchi" is one of the biggest clubs in Azerbaijan.
– There is a feeling of decline in the last two games. Do you see it and what is the reason?
– I don't think so. We had some mistakes. That's why we conceded goals. Today we played better than "Neftchi".
– What was the moment you regretted the most?
