Former player of the Azerbaijan national football team Vidadi Rzayev commented on the matches held in the 17th round of the Misli Premier League.
Speaking to AZERTAC about this, the expert called "Shamakhi"'s defeat to "Gabala" unexpected:
"Shamakhi"'s 0:4 loss was a surprise for me. Another surprising score was "Kapaz" defeating "Qarabag" away. It was expected that Gurban Gurbanov would make changes in the squad after a tough match with "Aynraxt". However, the second team that took the field did not live up to the head coach's expectations. Because there are members of the national team among them. I don't want to overshadow "Kapaz"'s victory. I expect the Ganja representative to stay in the league. The most difficult situation is with the "Karvan-Yevlax" team, which is in the last place with 6 points."
The 58-year-old expert stated that it is gratifying that the fight for the championship is going on between two teams:
"Now "Sabah" is challenging the Aghdam club in the league. They are in very good form. I wish five or six teams would fight for the championship."
It should be noted that "Sabah" leads the Misli Premier League with 40 points. "Qarabag" is in second place with 36 points.
