Gabala coach Elmar Bakhshiyev talks for a post-match reaction right after the  3:2 loss to Sabah in the 16th tour of the Azerbaijan Premier League. The 40-year-old skipper says:

“We knew it would be a hard game. Sabah had lost the first match after the winter break. But now they played at home.

We were unable to play in our best as there are some new footballers in the squad. But this team still has potential to play better. I believe in us that we will hit better results. The team’s confidence stays on. Momentary inattention led to conceding two goals.

There were some good occasions in the first period. And the team doesn’t include only Ulvi Isgandarov. Scoring is not only his job. We know from the forward to defense everyone can know how to score and we believe in their skills”.
