"Shimal", although an outsider in the championship, puts up a good fight with young football players."
These words were said by Ilkin Girtimov, a football player of "Zaqatala".
The experienced football player shared his thoughts on the game in which they defeated "Shimal" in the IX round of the First League.
"Shimal" showed its strength in the game with "Sabail", which is in the leading group. If we had approached the game confidently, the result would not have been pleasing for us. Good thing we scored in time and won. After 9 rounds, we have 16 points. Of course, it could have been more. It is satisfactory for the current situation. If some issues are resolved in winter, the team can fight for 1st or 2nd place," he said in his statement to sport24.az.
It should be noted that "Zaqatala", with 16 points in its asset after 9 rounds, is in 4th place.
