"I thank our fans. They supported the team to the end. Unfortunately, we couldn't make them happy. We lost two points today. After the first match, the club management showed their support to us. We are a new team. We believe that we will do good things. We have no doubt about it."
Idman.biz reports that the head coach of "Neftchi" Samir Abasov said this at the press conference held after the 0:0 draw with "Imishli" in the II round of the Azerbaijan Premier League.
- What were you dissatisfied with in the game plan?
- I was dissatisfied in the first half. The dynamics of the game were low. We raised the tempo in the second half. You can create 2-3 opportunities against such closed teams. There was an episode of Bassala Sambu. We had to appreciate it. We understand the opponent, they built the game on counterattacks. We were more eager in the second half. Ball losses were due to haste. The players suffered, I am grateful to them.
- What was the reason for Emin Mahmudov's substitution?
- Emin himself wanted it.
- When can good results be demanded from "Neftchi"?
- We have formed as a team. There is just a little misunderstanding between the players. The children need time. The desire among the players is at a high level, they have developed physically. We will eliminate the shortcomings with games.
- In the first two rounds, you played against closed teams such as "Shamakhi" and "Imishli". If there were other opponents, could the results be different?
- You emphasize correctly. It's easy to build a defense. It is not something that requires much effort. But the requirement in "Neftchi" is to do something in attack. It is difficult to do this for a newly formed team. There is a desire to win in the eyes of the children. Last season, we were afraid that we would see a goal in our goal in every attack. We have eliminated it this year. There is a bit of a problem in attack.
Is the transfer season over for "Neftchi"?
- Transfer never ends. Our department is working on it. Our main goal now is to bring the players we have to their peak level.
- Is it difficult to play with "Imishli" on this field, or to play with "Turan Tovuz" on your own field?
- It is very difficult to play on artificial turf. When "Qarabag" plays here, their coaches emphasize it. The field creates discomfort for the players. As for "Turan Tovuz", we will talk after the game.
- What will be the fate of Ramil Sheydaev and Ryunosuke Ohori, who were sent to the reserve team?
- We have told the players everything clearly and left the choice to them.
