Gabala’s U19 coach Emin Imamaliyev talks to media reporters right after the 1:3 victory on Sherif (Moldova) within the first round of the UEFA Youth League’s Champions Path. The 38-year-old boss says:

“We knew the match would be tough as the first tie had showed Sherif as a strong side. After the last game, we made a deep analyze about the opponent team. My team responded well to the tasks. We keep sustained period of pressure against Sherif and force them to mistakes and the first goal was well evident to this. We capitalized on the ball in a back pass from the home side. And the next two goals were good results of pressing.

Both Hertha and Lex are strong sides. But there is no a weak team in a football and we can play well against them after a good preparation”.
