Interview with "Kapaz" football player Ilkin Qirtimov to Sport24.az
- You drew (2:2) with "Neftchi" away in the 33rd round of the Misli Premier League. What can you say about the match?
- We knew in advance that the meeting would be difficult for us. The first half was tough. We had difficulty keeping the ball in our possession in some moments. But the second half was completely different. We managed to do it.
- You were close to winning. What do you think prevented it?
- Although we managed to take the lead in the score, we could not keep it until the end. An 11-meter penalty was awarded to our goal at the end of the match. How correct is it to give such a penalty? I do not know. But at least we got 1 point.
- You have only lost to "Neftchi" in one of the four matches in the championship. You have 2 wins and 1 draw. Do you go into the game with this team with extra motivation?
- Our matches with "Neftchi" are going well. There is no need for extra motivation when playing with this team. We go to every game to win. It was like that in this game too.
- "Kapaz" has not yet formalized staying in the championship with three rounds left. Do you think anything can change?
- We will fight to the end. We should focus on our own games first, not "Sabail". Of course, this is football. Anything can happen. We should not leave our work to chance.
- You will host "Sumgayit" in the 34th round. You can clarify all the questions by winning.
- This match will also be difficult. We have to be psychologically ready. No matter what happens, we will do everything we can to win this match.
- Your contract with "Kapaz" expires at the end of the season. Have you been offered a new contract?
- My contract is expiring. But it is too early to talk about it. We have three matches left. Let's fulfill our mission to stay in the championship, let's do what is required of us, and then everything will be fine.
