With the 5th tour league tie today, Gabala are failing again to break the winless streak of three away matches against Kapaz.

The warm-up show started in the display of back-to-back pressures. Later on, the home side got a foothold in proceedings, with Gabala making a threat only in the half-time. Omar Kalabane met the delivery from a corner with a header past well wide of goal. But in a feedback, Bakhtiyar Soltanov put his team ahead just before the break.

In the second period, the men of Fatih Kavlak stepped up their inroads into the Kapaz defense, but they could not trouble the goal and finished unable to win the 4th tie in Ganja.

Mahmud Qurbanov: Gabala are one of the strongest teams in Azerbaijan. My squad played in a superb display opening the scoring in the half. Of course it gave us inspiration. The show was very difficult for my team, but they were all and dug in to earn the victory. I congratulate all the administration of Kapaz and all fans of the club on the fine victory. And I wish Gabala successes in the future matches.

Fatih Kavlak: Congratulations to Kapaz. We were not be able to score the important goal. That is why it was a problem to set the proper defense. The mistake in our defensive display led to conceding a goal by the opponents. And in the second period, we were all but out to feed back.
