Gabala won 3:2 on Sabah in the Azerbaijan Cup’s round of 8. The return match started with faster attacks by Sabah, but it was Gabala setting up early threats on the show. It led to an opener by Davit Volkov in the middle of the first period two minutes before his second goal. The goals prompted Sabah to push harder, but Gabala held on clear with more attacks.
After the restart, the team from Baku scored one back. Three minutes later, Clesio Bauque shot in Gabala’s third. This was registered the third cup goal by the footballer from Mozambique. Then Sabah scored their second goal, but the matters had already been settled by Gabala before.
