Rauf Rustamli: I knew I would move to Karvan-Yevlakh when I left Sumgayit

"When I entered the game, I tried to do my best for my team. I have a good relationship with the players at Sabah and we just saw each other and smiled."

This was stated by Karvan-Yevlakh footballer Rauf Rustamli in an interview with sportal.az.

We present this interview.

- How was the match against Sabah for you? What do you think was the main reason for your defeat in this match?

- Actually, we all prepared well for the game. We also understood that the match would be difficult. It was our first game after the winter break. We will forget the defeat and prepare for the upcoming matches.

- Was the reason for conceding early goals excitement, or were you unable to withstand Sabah's pressure?

- I wouldn't call it excitement. It was just the opponent's skill and pressure that forced us to make mistakes. But we will eliminate these mistakes in the upcoming matches. We are working.

- You were playing against the team you belong to by contract. How was this meeting for you? When you entered the field, it seems that the Sabah players greeted you and you were looking at someone and smiling?

- When I entered the game, I tried to do my best for my team. I have a good relationship with the players at Sabah and we just saw each other and smiled. I wish them success too.

- It's interesting, couldn't you stay at Sabah in the winter? Or did you leave there to play more, maybe Valdas Dambrauskas didn't want you?

- Actually, when I left Sumgayit, I knew I would move to Karvan-Yevlakh. I took this step to play more. God willing, it will be successful.

- Karvan-Yevlakh is currently considered a major candidate to drop to the First League. How do you think the team will prevent this? Because the team is almost constantly losing..

- There are still many games ahead. It is true that we are currently in the last place in the tournament table. But we can get out of this situation. I believe that we will get out of the last place in the tournament table.

- Today, the team will face Sumgayit, for which you wore the uniform in the first half of the season. Will it be possible to defeat them?

- After the match with Sabah, we prepared for this game all week. We will play at home, in front of our fans. I think my team is ready for this game. In any case, we will do our best to win. God willing, we will win.
