Gabala coach Sanan Gurbanov talks for a post-match reaction after the 2:1 victory on Mariupol in the first trial match of the Bolu training camp, Turkey. The 39-year-old skipper says:

“It’s gratifying to see our footballers passionate since the first day of the camp. We have come on the first testing game today after 2-day heavy physical exercises. And we took on one session yesterday. It was a good fast show against Mariupol tonight. I got satisfied by our team’s both technical skills and speed. We feel passion in the squad.

Merab Gigauri is a footballer we added to the team after believing in his potential. He was dynamic tonight. I’m satisfied by both his and the team’s show. The victory is good to the squad’s spirits. It was well evident the Gabala players were all to not lose the game. It was a good game against the strong league team from Ukrainian. Gabala shoed good resiliance”.
