"We are very sorry that we missed the chance to win the championship."
Idman.biz reports that this was said by Ecem Aknam, a member of the Abşeron women's volleyball team, in a statement to journalists.
She commented on the defeat to Azərreyl in the High League final: "Actually, I have nothing to say. We have been the leader throughout the season. We also won the first match 3:0. It would have been enough for us to take two sets here. Unfortunately, it didn't work out. It wasn't our day. I congratulate Azərreyl. They really played very well. We could not give them enough response. I also congratulate my teammates. It was a great season for us. We had previously won the cup, and here we came second."
It should be noted that in the second game of the final stage held at the National Gymnastics Arena, Azərreyl restored the status quo thanks to a 3:0 victory and defeated Abşeron in the "Golden Set" – 15:12.
