Vlastimil Petrjela: Hajiyevski should accept draw against Neftchi as a victory

19 October 2007 13:46 (UTC +04:00)

â€œ I watched the matches of Baku and like its game. I consider that the match will be difficultâ€, Neftchi club head coach Vlastimil Petrjela told APA-Sport. The Czech coach said Baku is not easy rival.
â€œOur rival is performing well in the field and we accept it seriously. Baku will loss nothing and the draw will be equal to victory. The draw result will affect our position badly. So we need to defeat Baku. If Neftchi wins Baku the club will come closer to the leader Khazar-Lankaran. Unlike his Macedonian colleague Vlastimil Petrjela is engaged in solving his footballersâ€™ problems too.
â€œI work on my footballersâ€™ physical training too much and it takes me too much time. Those club footballers playing for the national team were given rest after the match against Serbia. It is difficult to prepare footballers within a day. All these are additional problemsâ€.
Neftchi sent to the national team five footballers- Ramin Guliyev, Ramazan Abbasov, Aleksandr Certoganov, Branimir Subasich and Samir Æliyev. /APA-Sport/
