"The level of the Premier League is higher. You see how "Imishli", "Gabala" and "Karvan-Yevlakh", who came to the high league this season, are struggling".
These words were said by "Shafa" football player Ismayil Zulfugarli during an interview with sportal.az.
- "Shafa" is the sole leader after 4 rounds, collecting maximum points. I guess you expected this kind of start before the season?
- The coaching staff made good plans for us. We prepared very well for the season. As a result, we are winning. Of course, the current results make us happy. We continue on our way and work.
- Which of the past 4 games would you say was the most difficult?
- To be honest, this is the second time I'm saying this, unlike the Premier League, there are no easy games in the First League. All teams are determined and good. Despite the big scores, it is so.
- Your main rival "Sabail" lost points in the last round. I guess that was a godsend for you?
- Of course, one of our rivals is "Sabail". They have a good team. At the moment, this loss of points does not give us an advantage. Because we are still at the beginning of the season. The season is long and there are many games.
- The match "Shafa" - "Sabail" will be held in the 6th round. Can we say that the championship fight will be between these two teams and the decisive moment will be known after the matches with them?
- Both teams are good and confident. However, there are many good teams in the championship. Those games will also be decisive. Every match is important for us.
- Premier League or First League? Which is the more difficult and heavy league?
- The level of the Premier League is higher. But the level of the First League has also increased a lot in recent years. This can also be said in the example of teams coming from the First League to the Premier League. You see how "Imishli", "Gabala" and "Karvan-Yevlakh", who came to the high league this season, are struggling.
