It is very important to be patient in matches like this.

After the Bizon Azerbaijan Cup Round of 16 match between “Qarabağ” and “Karvan-Yevlax” (3:0), our head coach Gurban Gurbanov held a press conference. The experienced specialist shared his thoughts about the match:

“I congratulate my players. They played with great discipline. In matches like this, it is very important to be patient and not break the game discipline, especially in a cup match. We played this opponent just four days ago, and they had analyzed us very well. We couldn’t score until the 80th minute. Although we had many scoring chances, we lacked precision. Such games sometimes bring great benefit to the players because the opponent knows you well and doesn’t allow you to play. In such situations, you constantly search for ways to force the opponent into making mistakes. When you succeed, you feel satisfied. Overall, it was an interesting match. I also thank our fans.”

The head coach also commented on reaching 800 matches in charge of “Qarabağ”:
“To be honest, I never count these things myself. Maybe that keeps me more motivated. If there is such a successful statistic, of course I should be happy. Every footballer has a number they dream of reaching, and coaches also have their own career goals. If I can manage another successful 200–300 matches, I would like to reach 1,000. We must continue to fulfill our duties. In the coming years and matches, we will strive to be even more disciplined".
