"The result of the match would not have changed anything in the standings. We wanted to please the fans. I thank them for supporting us until the end."
Idman.Biz reports that these words were said by Kakhaber Tskhadadze, the head coach of "Gabala", after the game with "Shamakhi" in the last round of the Azerbaijan Premier League.
The match ended with a score of 3:1 in favor of "Gabala".
"We scored beautiful goals, we won. The last games should help us in terms of self-confidence before the play-off match. In no case should we be complacent. Several leading players of "Shamakhi" were not on the field today. Despite this, it was good that our players were focused on the game. This makes us happy," he said.
The head coach also spoke about the upcoming play-off game:
"We must seriously prepare for the upcoming play-off match. Our opponent will be known tomorrow. We will prepare for that meeting within a week.
We are watching the games of all potential rivals. "Sabail" plays with three central defenders. "Mingachevir"'s tactical scheme changes in some matches.
We treat all rivals with respect. I told my players this. They understand very well. We have our own goal. We cannot be complacent. It will be a completely different match. It's a final game. Every step is very important in such a match. We understand this.
This is a very important game. I hope that the match will be held at a Premier League level stadium, on a natural grass field. There are good stadiums in Baku, Sumgayit, Tovuz. As far as I know, the Tovuz city stadium is closed for repairs. I believe that the game will be held in a good stadium."
"Gabala" took 11th place in the championship with 27 points.
