Qarabag head coach Gurban Gurbanov, who defeated Sabail 1:4 in the XXX round of the Misli Premier League, attended a press conference after the game.

Offsideplus.az reports that the 52-year-old manager shared his thoughts on the game:

"I congratulate my players. I am very happy that they took the game seriously. We conceded only 1 goal. And that was individual skill. I was dissatisfied with our preparation process from January to today. Because there was no time for games. I only had the opportunity to do it once. This time, 8 days will be very useful for us. It will be of great benefit for the upcoming games. As I said, we have not been able to keep up with the training rhythm so far. I think this will be very useful.

G. Gurbanov justified his absence from AFFA's Reporting Conference today as follows:

"Honestly, I don't know the number. There has never been a time when I did not go to a meeting without permission. If we look at each of them, our game day has come. We had a training session this morning. I don't want to leave the team on game day at all. I haven't been absent without an excuse. I've always told them. I don't have enough time to be present at all of them."

The coach of "Qarabag" assessed the performance of the players:

"We didn't get into goal episodes a little. Addai's episode was also there, Elvin's quick raid. It's difficult for a player who enters the game later in the cold weather. Overall, everyone was willing. As for Addai's performance, I don't agree."

G. Gurbanov reacted to the reduction of the funds allocated by AFFA to clubs from 3 million manats to 2.5 million:

"It will affect the clubs. For some clubs, 500 thousand is a lot of money. For them, it means the transfer of several players. They will have to find other sponsors. Some clubs will have problems, yes."
