Rashad Eyyubov, an integral part of the 2:1 victory over Neftchi in the Azerbaijan Premier League 24th tour, talks to gabalafc.az sharing his impression on great moments:
“It was really a tough game with 2 different periods. The opponents side were keeping us under sustained period of pressure but then in the 2nd half we pushed hard to level and go ahead. I think the result was ground out from a good resilience. We were the better side with our well-prepared tactics.
Just before the replacement, head coach Roman Grigorchuk asked me if I could play on the forward. And it was not an unrespectable chance for me as the all-important was to be a part of the better teamwork. I could score because of my proper position on the proper time. Now our closest target is the tally to the Azerbaijan Cup semifinal and we will be pushing side to hit this”.
It is worth to remind the 2 goals against Neftchi in the last away were the first-ever goals of both players for the red-black team. Rafael Santos struck this in his 76th appearance for Gabala being registered the 102nd in the list of scorers as Eyubov is the 103rd in his 7th match. These pair have expended the league scorers list to 79.
