"Winning was very important for us. It was also our first match after the winter break."
These words were said by "Kapaz" footballer Rauf Huseynli.
The 26-year-old midfielder shared his thoughts on the match in the 17th round of the Misli Premier League, in which they defeated "Qarabag" (2:0) away.
"Starting the second half of the season with a victory will give us extra motivation. Every point gained is very valuable. That's why we were very happy as a team. But we must already forget this game and focus on the next match," he said in a statement to sport24.az.
R. Huseynli said that they believed in victory in that meeting:
"We knew it would be difficult. But we go to every game to get the maximum result. I watch every game of "Qarabag" in the UEFA Champions League. They represent Azerbaijan properly in the international arena. We also watch and support. They have the last matches left in the main stage. I wish them success in the game with "Liverpool". We believe that they will achieve good results away. Because they have shown that they can play well and disciplined against every team."
