"The game was more difficult than we expected. Because both teams understood how important this match was. We started the game according to our plan, we wanted to score an early goal and slow down the pace of the game a little. But the opponent prevented it well. They disrupted the rhythm of the game with small fouls and therefore we could not open the score in the first half."
Idman.Biz reports that these words were said by "Imishli" head coach Jorge Casquilha after the game with "Kapaz".
The game ended in a 0:0 draw.
"Since the fight was mainly in the midfield, there were not many dangerous episodes in the first half. Only Almeida had a real goal opportunity, unfortunately he could not take advantage of it. Overall, the first half was in a balanced struggle.
The game became even more difficult in the second half. Because after the break, the condition of the field worsened even more. Nevertheless, our team tried to score and attack, but at the same time preferred to keep the risks to a minimum. Both teams understood that losing points at this stage is very important.
Currently, there is a 6-point difference between us and "Kapaz" and we were able to maintain that advantage in this game. That's why our team didn't take too much risk. In addition, there was also a desire to increase the difference even more. Of course, "Kapaz" fought until the end to prevent this.
Small fouls occurred frequently throughout the game, which caused the rhythm to drop. As a result, from the point of view of maintaining the point difference, the result of this game can be considered satisfactory," - said Casquilha.
