"I am happy to be here with the team." Sport24.az reports that these words were said by the president of the "Qarabağ" club, Tahir Gozel, in his statement to "CBC Sport".
The functionary shared his thoughts before the first match of the third qualifying round of the Champions League against North Macedonia's "Shkendija":
"Going on the road with the team has advantages. This time becomes a memory for yourself. We have the opportunity to talk more deeply with the technical staff. Because everyone is very busy in Baku. We had a number of conversations here. I am very pleased that we discussed these things among ourselves. The team is in good condition. Football is getting more and more difficult. Even in searching for players. The search process has become complicated. We believe that during the time we spend together, we should make good analyzes and properly implement the organization. We have decided to further strengthen the squad. Hopefully, we have come to the trip with great confidence."
It should be noted that the return match, which will be held on August 12 at the Tofig Bahramov Republican Stadium, will start at 20:00.
