"This was a derby match. The game between Neftchi and Qarabag is an important match for an Azerbaijani footballer. We knew it would be a difficult match. Qarabag is a strong opponent."
İdman.biz reports with reference to QOL.az that these words were said to journalists by Neftchi defender Yuri Matias after the match against Qarabag in the 31st round of the Misli Premier League.
The Brazilian footballer commented on the 0:3 defeat as follows: "We started the game well. After the first goal, it was as if there was confusion for about 5 minutes. We saw consecutive goals in our goal. After 0:3, it was difficult to come back. No matter how hard we tried, we could not escape defeat."
He also spoke about the cup game against Sabah on April 23: "We lost the first match with a score of 1:2. But nothing is over yet. There is a return match ahead. The situation needs to be changed. We must definitely come back. For this, we must be better, more careful. The meeting with Sabah is very important for us. We have to give our lives for victory."
