"The referee was close to the episode at that time. I had touched the ball."
This was stated by "Kapaz" football player Shakir Seyidov in an interview with futbolinfo.az.
We present the interview.
– You defeated "Qarabag" in the last round before the national break, and this was your second victory over the Aghdam representative this season…
– We prepared well for the game. We knew that "Qarabag" likes to play with the ball. We took this into account when we went out on the field. We took advantage of the opportunity we had by playing on the counter-attack and won. I am glad that we left the field with 3 points and made our fans happy.
– Your episode with Kamilo Duran was much discussed. Do you think the referee was right not to award a penalty in that episode?
– The referee was close to the episode at that time. I had touched the ball. The referee makes the decision. We had to agree with whatever the referee decided at that moment.
– How did you react to the fact that no football player from "Kapaz" was called up for the national team's training camp? Which player or players from your team deserved an invitation to the national team?
– The national team has a head coach. I cannot say who they should call and who they should not. Every football player who receives an invitation to the national team must wear that uniform with dignity. Players who are not called up should also work on themselves and wait for their chance.
– You will face "Gabala" in the first match after the break. Will you be able to leave this match with 3 points?
– We go to every game to win. Our goal will be the same again. We will go to the meeting with "Gabala" to get 3 points. We will do our best to achieve our goal.
– "Kapaz" scored 8 points in the last 4 rounds before the national break. In this sense, will the break not harm you?
– I don't think the break will harm us. We will try to continue the successful series.
– "Kapaz" is currently 13 points ahead of 12th place and 5 points ahead of 11th place. Does this give you confidence to say that your team will maintain its place in the Premier League?
– We are trying to move further up the tournament table. We don't look back, we look at the opponent in front. We will do our best to finish the season in a better place.
