"We have collected 10 points after the first part of the season. This is not a bad result."
This was stated by Sumgayit defender Pedro Pinto in an interview with sportnet.az.
We present the interview.
— How do you assess the match?
— I think the game can be divided into two parts. The first part was better for us, we were able to build our game and try to do what we wanted on the field. In the second part, we showed character as a team, showed a positive attitude and a strong mentality. This was very important for us.
— You often emphasize the mentality factor. What is the reason for this?
— Because the main thing that makes football different is mentality. There are new players in the team and they are still in the adaptation phase. But overall, as a team, we are on the right track and developing.
— How do you rate your personal performance?
— We have collected 10 points after the first part of the season. This is not a bad result. But I always say that what is more important than individual indicators is the team's result. I have learned a lot during this time and I can be better in the future.
— Can this result be considered successful?
— Yes, I think this is a good result. Considering the organizational issues and the difficulties we faced, the result we achieved is positive. Although we cannot always show the team game we want, the overall picture is satisfactory.
— You lost in the first half. How would you compare these two games?
— These were completely different games. Neither the day nor the conditions were the same. The opponents were also different. Therefore, it would not be correct to compare these two matches.
