Luis Aragon: “Actually, we deserved victories also of the previous matches. But the team were unable to win. Now we made this playing better in the full period. We could have scored more but some occasions went off target. We got a few difficulties in the defensive line. We have introduced 4 players from U21 today as a good matter for both Gabala and national football. I appreciate all efforts of our footballers and fans. Thanks to all!

Bojidar Bandovic: “We played really badly. My squad mostly focused on an individual play. The opponents really deserved the win. Although we lost 7 matches before this one, the team held on and played up to the end. But today, it was quite different and if I was a player, I wouldn't be glad about this performance”.
