"Gabala" won against "Araz-Nakhchivan" with a score of 2:1 in the 13th round of the Misli Premier League. Sport24.az reports that Kakhaber Tskhadadze, the head coach of the home team, answered journalists' questions at the press conference after the match:
"I congratulate my players. They showed character. This is very important. We had a very good meeting with the club president two days ago. We promised him that we would fight well. Today the game started a bit tense. "Araz-Nakhchivan" is a strong team with good attacking potential. At the beginning of the match, we were nervous. That's why we made turnovers. After scoring a goal, we calmed down and started playing more comfortably. We conceded a goal again from a standard situation. We started the second half well. We didn't give the opponent a chance to score. We create a lot of goal episodes. But we can't take advantage of them. Today I saw that our potential is higher. We have only won one game. There are many matches ahead. We need to draw the right conclusions from this victory."
- You were expected to win for several rounds. Did you expect this victory to be over the team of Elmar Bakhshiyev, the former head coach of "Gabala"?
- We have great respect for Elmar Bakhshiyev. He is both a good person and a good coach. It just so happened that we won in the match against his team.
- Nugay Rashidov was one of the best on the field today. How do you assess his performance?
- We are very happy that such a young football player played well. But let's not praise him too much. Nugay must play stable. Eshgin also fought well today. Nijat came out to the game with an injury. He gave his all on the field. I thank all the players. They showed true character.
- What is your attitude to Murad Musayev receiving a red card in the last minutes?
- Murad's only mistake in the game was being late at that moment. He is not only a captain, but also plays as a leader on the field. Maybe he saved us from losing points by getting a red card.
