Zira won 1-0 against Gabala in the 30th round of the Misli Premier League. According to Sport24.az, after the match, Zira's head coach Rashad Sadygov answered journalists' questions at the press conference:
"It was a difficult game for us. The opponent plays very watchable football. I think this team should have fought for European cups. Although they played well in the last games, I think they had difficulty winning. The match was held in a tense struggle. We must find the strength in ourselves and show a better game in the next matches. We started the match very badly. In the second half, we managed to improve the game to some extent. I congratulate my players for fighting hard until the end."
- Until the goal episode, "Zira" did not look like itself...
- We had a lot of ball losses in the first half. The tight schedule and the fatigue of April had some effect on this. We made rotations in certain positions as much as possible. Henrique's injury creates a serious problem for us. So we cannot rotate Issa Jibrila. We also know that Issa is prone to injury when he plays heavy games one after another. We kept him on the field today cautiously. After scoring a goal, we immediately replaced him.
