Gabala beats Ravan with a comfortable victory 4:0 at the 22nd league week match in capital Baku.

With the tour already determined first and second sixes as AZAL defeated to Garabagh, Gabala typified display with boosted mood in the first six. It appeared evident since the opening minutes where Gabala lunched swift inroads before scoring the first goal in the 3rd minute. Dodo"s superb searching cross found Mendy in the 18-yard box to convert in.  

Soon after, the home side drooled for the next goal by Kamanan before earning Gabala third and his double on 25 minutes. Ravan still seamed not having chance to trouble the score mostly playing in backs to the wall display. 

And it was Gabala again keeping his net clear also in the second part. With 14 minutes remaining, Ravan were punished for their blot with a red, the disappointing moment that led the home side to concede another goal soon afterwards. The through ball by Deon Burton drowned Davud Karimi, who was playing for his debut, into bitter regret – 4:0.

 

Fatih Kavlak: “It is a very significant moment to open the scoring in early minutes, as it allowed us to upset the opponents for full time. My team satisfied me gaining a foothold the first six. Now the target is to get a tally for the Euroleague.
