Neftchi PFC head coach Samir Abasov expressed his views at the post-match press conference of the 12th round of the Premier League against Sabah. The specialist, who did not hide his joy at the team's rise to the lead after this victory, thanked the players:

"Our goal was to play smart with this team, run as little as possible and miss the opponent a lot. We did not analyze the opponent. Because we had to fight not only with our game, but also with our body, character and spirit. I think we are playing better and better. True, sometimes we lost the ball unnecessarily, and as a result, we suffered physically. Compared to previous games, today we scored a lot of goals and won 2: 0. We are in a difficult situation. We suffer a lot, including myself, who has just recovered from the pandemic. For example, Fahmin Muradbeyli, who recovered from the pandemic, fell into a bad situation in his first training session. Today, all our footballers were able to show their minds and game qualities. I am very grateful to them for that. "

Then the head coach answered journalists' questions: “I don't think we have a problem with the attack. We see problems in the team and try to solve them slowly. The issue is not only with the striker, but also with the actions of team members during the attack. There were many good sides to this today. A large number of our players took part in the attack. As for the striker position, we did not talk about the transfer with the management. In general, I did not think about it. We do not want a new player in any position. I am satisfied with the current players. We were aware that other competitors were losing points. We were very happy in the locker room to be promoted to the leadership. We want to win the next match and go to the winter break as a leader. Yusuf Laval's injury seems serious at first glance, but we hope that a medical examination will show that it is not serious. As for sending a physical training coach, I would not say that I was not satisfied, I just did not agree. I also talked to Mario Castellano and thanked him for his humanity and professionalism. "
