"It was a very difficult game for both teams. Although "Zira" had the advantage with the ball, we were tactically ready. We built the defense well. "Zira" created two dangerous situations from standard situations. We knew that the opponent was physically strong. Apart from two dangerous corner kicks, "Zira" could not get close to our goal. This shows that we prepared well tactically for the match. In the second half, we expected "Zira" to launch intensive attacks. Their players are superior in terms of physical and individual quality. The opponent wanted to score a goal. They were pressing until the 70th minute. Our players looked more tired. Because our previous match was held in very difficult conditions. We had 4 days to prepare for the game against "Zira". It is very difficult to prepare for a game in 4 days at this stage of the championship. "Zira" had 6 days. They wanted to score a goal. We defended against such an opponent for 1 point. We did it successfully. In the second half, our goal was to win 1 point, and we achieved it.
