Jorge Casquilha: "We couldn't make the deep passes we wanted because we didn't have two important players"

"Imishli" lost to "Gabala" 2:3 in the 18th round of the Misli Premier League. Sport24.az reports that the head coach of the guests, Jorge Casquilha, answered journalists' questions at the press conference held after the match:

- I was not satisfied with my team's performance. We had analyzed "Gabala". We knew that they have fast players and prefer long passes. We lost because we made too many mistakes. You can't make mistakes like this in a match against a team like "Gabala". We complicated our position. We should have left here with points. We need to prepare for the next game. We will try to play better against "Kapaz".

- "Imishli" performed well until the match with "Neftchi". After that match, the team has not been able to win for 7 games. What do you think is the reason for this?

- Even if we couldn't win, we took points in matches with big opponents. There are different reasons. There are difficulties because our squad is not wide. Every game is important for us. We need to collect points.

- Did the absence of your two main players - Ezekiel Morgan and Yau Moses - affect the result?

- The absence of two important players is noticeable. There were gaps in midfield. We couldn't make the deep passes we wanted. We did what we could with the squad we had. Penalties are also part of football.
