Gabala have won 3:0 over Ravan in the 6th leg match of the Topaz Premier League, in away, today.

The looked faster from the very early minutes while Ravan were trying to make rare troubles to our defense. Sergei Zenjov could have scored in the early opener by his 2 failed attempts just like Dodo being off-target after a cool pass from Zargarov in the right.

Then in the 35th, Gabala”s Aleksey Gai came under the spotlight with an inch-perfect long-range kick deflected by the keeper.

A bit later on, the red-black side opened the scoring when Samir Zargarov set up a good occasion for Zenjov failed to touch before Dodo prodded in. The first league season goal of the Brazilian is also registered to be his all 26th for Gabala.

Ravan”s first pulsating threat was seen only in the early 2nd half when Tural Gurbatov was denied by a great save from Bezotosny in a counter attack.

Then Zargarov doubled Gabala”s lead scoring his all 12th for the club, including the 2nd in the season. And his double on the show was the 3rd of the visitor ending in a comfortable victory. With the goal, the midfielder reached in the list of top scorers of Gabala.

The result left Gabala sitting 3rd on the league table.
