Another award winner of the Misli Premier League has been determined.
Idman.biz reports that "Zira" has secured a place in the top three, thus securing a place in the European Cups.
Thank you, "Shamakhi"
It was known in advance (https://www.idman.biz/az/news/football/74090) that "Zira" could achieve this in one of the matches to be held in Tovuz in the XXXII round. The team, coached by Rashad Sadygov, won the award without playing today's match with "Kapaz". This was caused by the loss of points by "Turan Tovuz", which is in the 4th place. "Shamakhi" secured a medal and a ticket to Europe for "Zira" with a 1:1 draw in the away match. The settlement club with 61 points is 12 points away from the 4th place. Although "Turan Tovuz" retains the opportunity to reach "Zira" in terms of points with 4 rounds remaining, the Baku team will be ahead in additional indicators.
4th medal
"Zira" has won the Premier League medal for the 4th time in its history. The capital representative, who won silver in the 2015/16 and 2023/24 seasons, was content with bronze in the 2021/22 season. The "Eagles" still have a theoretical chance of winning gold. But this possibility will probably end this round. It is expected that the team, which will remain between silver and bronze, will secure the second place in the next rounds.
Hat-trick from Sadygov
"Zira" won three of the 4 awards with Rashad Sadygov. The young specialist, who won his first bronze in the 2021/22 season and silver in the last championship, has raised the team he has been working with since the summer of 2020 to the "top three" for the 3rd time.
4th European trip
The 4th award was the 4th ticket to the European Cups. True, the silver license in the 2015/16 season was not enough to stay and participate in the UEFA tournament. Instead, the debut took place in the 2017/18 season. 5 years after the debut in the Europa League, the team also experienced the excitement of the Conference League. The 3rd attempt last year started in the Europa League and continues to the Conference League. Which of the other two tournaments "Zira", whose dream of the Champions League is a miracle, will go to will depend on the final of the cup on May 31.
It should be noted that the "Kapaz" - "Zira" match, which will be held today, will take place in Tovuz.
