"We should have been more careful after taking the lead. Unfortunately, we conceded a goal and lost the victory. But this is football. Opponents also want to win. It's okay. We continue on our way."

He stated that they will try to make the most of the break in the championship: "The break will be useful for everyone. We played 3 good games. Now we need to rest a little, then work with all our strength."
Ninkovic said that the start of the season was successful for his team: "7 points in 3 games is a good result. Moreover, considering that one of our opponents was Qarabag. But this is just the start of the season. The main thing is to continue it."
