â€œWe were fortuneless in the match against Austrians. I did not expect such results in the matches both at home and awayâ€, â€œNeftchiâ€ club head coach Gurban Gurbanov told APA-Sport. Gurban Gurbanov said the defeated team is always guilty.
â€œWe must find our mistakes. But in my opinion we had fewer mistakes. We knew that our opponent will organize attack in the second half. Despite defence tactic in the second half we had many goal chances when the score was 2-1. But we did not use team. We should have won the match. We just were fortunelessâ€.
Gurban Gurbanov said psychological tiredness played special role.
â€œMay be we were untrained physically. But I would not like to exaggerate this factor. In general our footballers were weak both physically and morally. This moral factor influenced the matchâ€. Gurban Gurbanov explained the substitutes he made during the match.
â€œBranimir did not want to play in the second half. â€œ Subashich felt himself badly. The doctor allowed him to play in the match. But in the second half he felt himself badly and we decided to take him out. Agil Mammadov was in the same condition. I said Zaur Taghizada not to be victim of the provocation. We needed Zaur very much in the second half. Zaur was punished with red card unfairly. Our opponent made use of itâ€. /APA-Sport/
