After the match between "Shamakhi" and "Neftchi" (1:1) in the XXII round of the Misli Premier League, the head coach of the visiting team, Yuri Vernidub, answered journalists' questions. Sport24.az reports that the specialist said the following at the meeting with media representatives:
– I don't want to comment on the game. Let the person responsible for this decision comment on it. I am satisfied with the game, but unfortunately, what happened today is painful. This is not suitable for football.
– There was heavy fog at the end of the game. Do you think it was right for the game to continue?
– I don't know. It seems that VAR saw the episode well.
– Abubakar joined the game after the break and scored consecutive goals. Wouldn't it have been right for him to be on the field earlier?
– We had thought about it from the beginning. Sambu and Abubakar are in good shape. Refereeing is problematic everywhere. Not only in Azerbaijan. As a team, we experienced the most disappointing situation. That's why we feel bad. We had started to move forward seriously. It seems like they don't want "Neftchi" to rise. But we will not stop, we will have the will and we will move forward. Strong people can continue this path. Sorry, I don't want to talk anymore.
