"A team like Neftchi should not have such a problem."
This was stated by Neftchi midfielder Imad Faraj in an interview with futbolxeber.az.
We present that interview:
- In the VII round of the Azerbaijan Premier League, you left the field with 1 point (2:2) in a dramatic match with Zira. What can you say about the game?
- We played well. We made a comeback. We were very close to winning. But later we had a problem with the referees. Like every game.
- How would you comment on the penalty episode?
- It's embarrassing. No one saw any rudeness there. But the referee stopped the game for no reason. I don't know who told the referee this. I think it was a big mistake.
- How do you rate the episode yourself?
- Nothing, it was a normal episode. This is not normal. We fought for victory for 90 minutes. But the referee's mistake deprived us of victory.
- It is clear that Neftchi is having problems with referees...
- A team like Neftchi should not have such a problem. In the last rounds, at least 2 of our penalties were not awarded. For some reason, the referees do not see the rudeness against us.
- You have played in Cyprus before. Is it possible to assign a penalty in such an episode there?
- Of course not. In general, big clubs do not have such a problem with referees. Whether it is Cyprus or France. Can you imagine such a penalty being awarded to PSG?
- In such a situation, will Neftchi be able to maintain its claim?
- Actually, we are very good as a team. The players have skills. It just seems that we have to fight the referees every game. It shouldn't be like this normally, we should only focus on our game and our work. I want to win. The referees "kill" us every round. We don't know the reason.
- Do you think that after such a noise, referee errors against Neftchi will continue?
- Actually, we also have the strength to fight the referees. Look, in the game with Zira, even if they did everything they could, they could not beat us. We didn't lose. We will fight every match.
