We knew beforehand that the game would be difficult. Weather conditions were also severe. We started the match very well. We had control of the game. The red card ruined all the plans. We changed the system. 10 minutes after the red card, the opponent had the upper hand. We tried to fight properly. In the second half, the opponent had control of the ball. They scored with a quick attack. We faced a sad defeat. There are still games ahead. We have to prepare for the next matches. The refereeing was again very weak. Vusal Masimov should have been given a red card in the 50th minute of the match. Why didn’t they call VAR? I am ready to discuss peace with Simsek. Ours was the same episode. Unfortunately, VAR did not call the chief judge. Faig Hajiyev’s episode was lighter. Why is Vusal Masimov not given a red card? We have to be stronger. Judges also need to be won over.
Publika.az reports that the head coach of “Turan Tovuz” Aykhan Abbasov said these words at the press conference held after the match against “Kepaz” (2:1) of the 19th round of the Premier League. He answered the journalists’ questions.
– Faig Hajiyev put the team in a difficult situation. Will he be punished?
– It was a game situation. It’s not a deliberate thing. He will also gain experience.
– How would you interpret the first goal you conceded?
– I wanted to make a substitution before the goal. There were gaps in the defense. The opponent was attacking from Faig’s position.
– There are reports that you will part ways with Martin Petkov.
– Most likely, we will part ways. He has reasons for himself and for us. Martin is a promising player. It had started well. But then the problems did not allow him. A decision will be made in the near future.
– Were you satisfied with the performance of the players you rented from “Neftchi”?
– Both have potential. They had few chances in “Neftchi”. They will play more with us. A lot depends on them. They did their best today.
