“Returning from Zaqatala with points has never been easy.”
These words were spoken by Rahid Əmirquliyev, president and captain of First League club Shahdag Qusar.
The experienced footballer commented on his team’s defeat to Zaqatala in Matchweek 8 of the First League:
“I wouldn’t say the opponent was a head above us. Both teams had opportunities. It was an evenly matched game. I think we could have at least returned with one point. The refereeing in the match was terrible. Almost all decisions favored Zaqatala. Of course, I don’t want to overshadow Zaqatala’s victory, but if the referee had managed the game properly, we could have drawn. I have started training with the team, but I am not 100 percent ready to play yet. Hopefully, I will be fully prepared in the coming days,” he told sport24.az.
It should be noted that the Zaqatala vs. Shahdag Qusar match ended with a narrow home victory for the hosts.
