As part of the VIII round of the Misli Premier League, "Shamakhi" lost to "Gabala" 1:0 away. Sport24.az reports that the head coach of the home team, Kakhaber Tskhadadze, answered journalists' questions at the press conference held after the game.
"I congratulate Shamakhi on the victory. I don't want to talk much about the game. We had many goal episodes. We had a great advantage. But we could not take advantage of the opportunities. Our reserve bench is not strong. Is the team playing badly, physically or tactically? We are doing our best. We make mistakes, we concede goals. I cannot blame myself at all. The team is functionally and tactically prepared. If a football player cannot score from 2 meters, I will not score instead of him. We need to get stronger. There was one team on the field in the second half."
- Did you make mistakes in the selection process in the summer?
- We made mistakes in the selection process. We need to get stronger. There are some players who are not at the Premier League level, I will send them to the U-19 team. We have to admit that. Who should we put on the field in the second half... God willing, everything will be fine, we will get stronger and everything will be better. I have played in big clubs, I played in "Manchester City". After the game, they always supported the football player. They supported them until the end. We and they must learn. The fan must stand behind the team. Our team is playing. Therefore, we should not panic. We just cannot get stronger during the game. The reserves are local youth.
- Will you strengthen the squad during the national break?
- Which football player can be found at this time, if any football player is without a team, what will be the situation? The season ended in May and it is currently October. We are not a rich club. We want to get stronger right now. But as I said, what will be the situation of that football player... We admit our mistake. We will get stronger in December. If this does not happen, it will be difficult.
