A press conference with the head coaches was held after the "Karvan-Yevlax" - "Sabah" match. Sport24.az reports that Valdas Dambrauskas, the head coach of the guests, first appeared before the media representatives.
- We played dominantly from the first second to the end. We could have scored three or four goals. I would like that too. We won three points. It's a positive thing. Mikels' injury saddened us all. We will pray to God that nothing happens.
- Usually, after the result is decided, head coaches take the leading players off the field. But Mikels played until the end. Why?
- I don't know why you say that. He is our only central striker. He is very eager. That's why I wanted to keep him on the field.
- After the game with "Sumgayit", you complained about the refereeing, but De Blekere said that all the decisions were correct.
- That's De Blekere's opinion. I respect that. But I have personally worked with top-level referees in different countries. That decision was completely wrong. I am interested in whether the same decision will be made if there is a similar episode again? There is a golden rule in all football that there should be consistency in 50/50 decisions. It's like looking for a cat in a dark room.
- You scored two goals, both of which were curious. Yes, you could have scored three or four goals. Was it your decision to play with "little blood"?
- I don't agree with you. Such teams defend with 11 people. The opponent entered our penalty area in the 44th and 46th minutes. It was difficult to play against teams that played tightly. I don't agree with the idea of playing with "little blood". There is a lack of quality in the last passes.
- If Mikels' condition is serious, will this create a problem for you?
- This is not our first injury. Sekidika, Shafranko, Noqueira, Zineddine, Aleksey - all are very important players. But you can't hear me complaining about the injury. I give you a million percent guarantee that whether we win or lose, we will go to the field with 11 people.
