"We were considered favorites. We knew it and it gave us some relief."
Idman.biz reports that Khirdalan basketball player Jesse Qi said this after the game in which they lost to Jalilabad 90:98 in the IX round of the Azerbaijan Basketball League.
The American international attributed their inability to win to the lack of a weak team in the championship: "Any result can happen. From the first moment, we have to play carefully against any opponent. Our problem was in defense. We also had an injured player. After that, we have to work harder and maintain the team spirit. I believe that we will return to the 2nd round as a stronger Khirdalan.
It should be noted that Khirdalan finished the first round in the 5th place with 13 points.
