"Every match in the Champions League is very difficult. But we have won the first two matches."
This was stated by Qarabagh goalkeeper Mateusz Kochalski in an interview with futbolxeber.az.
We present that interview:
- In the 8th round of the Azerbaijan Premier League, you defeated "Turan Tovuz" with a score of 2:1. How would you comment on the tenacious victory?
- We didn't perform very well in the first half. But after the break we recovered and played better. As a result, we won, achieved our goal and got an important 3 points. I am very happy with this result.
- What changed during the break that "Qarabagh" took full advantage in the second half?
- Our head coach made two substitutions. This changed our game. In addition, he had a conversation with us during the break. He further motivated the team and all this had a positive effect on us. You yourself saw that there was a very good "Qarabagh" on the field in the second half.
- Can we say that "Qarabagh" is ready for the game against "Athletic"?
- "Qarabagh" is always ready. Whether it is a game of the national championship or the Champions League.
- How do you think, will "Qarabagh" be able to continue its successful performance in the Champions League in a difficult trip to Spain?
- Every match in the Champions League is very difficult. But we have won the first two matches. We have proven that we are a strong team. We have shown that we are able to win every match. Including in the meeting with "Athletic". We believe that even if we play away, we will achieve our goal.
- It is said that "Athletic" head coach Ernesto Valverde wants them to score a lot of goals against "Qarabagh"...
- Similar opinions were expressed by the head coaches of "Benfica" and "Copenhagen". They also wanted to score a lot of goals against us. What happened in the end? Before the game, many people can say a lot of things. We will see what will happen in the game.
- Foreign media reported that Dortmund's Borussia is interested in you. How true is this?
- I cannot comment on this news. I have only read what was written. I have no other information.
