Valdas Dambrauskas: "The fate of the game was already decided in the first half"

"Sabah" defeated "Zira" 3:1 away in the 18th round of the Misli Premier League. Sport24.az reports that Valdas Dambrauskas, the head coach of the Masazir team, answered journalists' questions at the press conference held after the match:

- I congratulate my players. Their approach to the game and their behavior were amazing. We were able to execute everything we had planned on the field. We put on a very good performance. The fate of the game was already decided in the first half. We could have scored more goals in the first half. I should also note that "Zira" is truly a great team. When we were leading 2:0, the opponent had good scoring opportunities. The second half was a balanced game. The opponent started to come at us. We had shortcomings in our final passes. We are already forgetting all this. Because a very difficult week is coming up. We have three difficult games. 

- Do you want "Qarabag" to advance further in the European Cups in order to continue the successful results in the championship?

- I am more concerned with my own team. We don't have time to think about such things. Their performance in Europe is very good. I congratulate "Qarabag" and wish them success. When the name of Azerbaijan is mentioned in Europe, "Qarabag" comes to mind first. They represent Azerbaijan very well.
