"I congratulate everyone on the start of the season. I hope it will be an interesting season. We had a lot of scoring opportunities. My players played well. I am satisfied with each of them. We couldn't capitalize on the chances. Instead, the opponent scored. Such things happen in football."
Idman.biz reports that this was stated by Kakhaber Tskhadadze, the head coach of the visiting team, after the match of the I round of the Azerbaijan Premier League "Karvan-Yevlax" - "Gabala" (1:1).
- Don't you think that the turning point of the game was the substitutions you made? Those who entered the field didn't seem to be able to add strength to the game...
- I agree with you. They are all members of our team. I substituted some players because they were tired. You are right, we could not get the result we expected from the players we brought on. The team does not consist of 11 players. We must give everyone a chance. Sangare has joined us for a week. He needs time to adapt.
- There were 6 football players from the I League team in the starting lineup. What are the negative or positive aspects of this?
- I am satisfied with all of them. There are experienced players in the team as well as young players. Doni Massumo did not play professionally before coming to Azerbaijan. But today you see his game.
- What will be "Gabala's" goal this season?
- This year our goal is to stay as high as possible and strengthen in the Premier League. It is difficult for a team coming from a lower league to play for high places. We are going step by step. We will not be afraid of any team, we will not build a "bus".
- Do you attribute the failure to capitalize on scoring opportunities to the skill of the opponent's goalkeeper, or could your players not shoot as they wanted?
- The opponent's goalkeeper was very good. Our players also lacked composure. The main thing is that we can create scoring opportunities. I am only happy about this.
