Interview of "Sumgayit" football player Rustam Ahmadzada to Sport24.az
- You managed to defeat "Gabala" away. What are your thoughts on the game?
- The match was really intense. Nevertheless, we managed to win 3 points, and this makes me very happy. Scoring a goal is, of course, an extra joy for me.
- How would you rate the team's performance in the first round...
- I think the situation can be assessed well. The team is new, many players joined us in the summer. In addition, the head coach and coaching staff have also changed. Nevertheless, I consider the situation normal.
- You perform better in "Sumgayit" compared to "Zira". In general, how do you rate your performance?
- Indeed, I think I am in good shape now. But if I say that I am at the peak of my form now, it would be wrong. I know that I can be even better and I strive for it. I had been waiting to reach this level for a long time.
- How much credit does a specialist like Sasa Ilic deserve for such a successful performance?
- Sasa Ilic, as a head coach, plays a very big role in the team's successful performance. I am very pleased to work with such a head coach and coaching staff. He shows me a warm attitude, believes in me, supports me and trusts me, which is very important for every football player. I am very happy about this.
- You were invited to the national team. Your expectations from the matches with Iceland and France...
- I don't want to make predictions in advance. It is just necessary to put all my strength, show my desire and ability if I go to the field. With God's help, the result will also be positive.
