Neftchi PFC head coach Samir Abasov expressed his views at the post-match press conference of the 16th round of the Premier League against Gabala.

"It was a very difficult game. We knew it would happen. We lost the match, Sabir Bugrin was injured at the last moment. This put us in a difficult situation. Nevertheless, we won. After 3-4 days there is a game against "Zira". We asked the players to calm down. We must forget this match. We will be able to make some changes in the next game. Maybe we didn't play well today. Our game also depended on the opponent. I congratulate them on a good game. "

Then the head coach answered journalists' questions: “The players were a little worried. Weather conditions and other issues created difficulties. We were in a very difficult situation in this match. The lack of 4-5 players affected not only the coaches but also the players. You win the game with a precise shot. Maybe the fair result of this game was a draw. "
