I want to congratulate Kapaz. This victory was a great success for them, a great victory. I don't want to say too much today. In the first half, we were the more dominant, better playing side. We simply had 3-4 scoring chances from corner kicks, but Kapaz's goalkeeper performed very well and didn't allow us to score. In the second half, we made some changes. But after that, our game rhythm dropped significantly. Then we made an incomprehensible mistake. In that case, the opponent also distinguished themselves. Kapaz pulled back towards their own goal. We had to be patient during attacks, but sometimes we rushed. We have to forget all this. True, we are a little sad. Because we have been undefeated for a long time. But there is no time to grieve. We must prepare for the important final game ahead.
Sport24.az reports that these words were said by Sabah's head coach Valdas Dambrauskas at the press conference held after the match against Kapaz (0:1) of the 31st round of the Misli Premier League.
He answered journalists' questions.
- Is it possible that some players were thinking about the cup final match? Did this affect their performance?
- Of course, I agree with your opinion to some extent. Today we gave a chance to our players who play less often. We also didn't want to take any risks in a certain sense. Because we could have had injuries. But they also had to show today how good their quality is, what they can do. We were not able to succeed in what we wanted today in a certain sense. But I cannot complain about their behavior, the efforts they showed. Just when you change one player, how the dynamics in the team drop... Imagine changing 5-6 players. This is not easy. If the squad that came out today had played 5-6 games together in a row, you would have witnessed a different picture. Tomorrow we will have our recovery training. We will work on the issues we need to improve and watch the match that will be held on Wednesday.
