"We fought until the end. But Qarabag won."
Idman.biz reports that Zira goalkeeper Thiago Silva said this.
The Portuguese goalkeeper commented on the 1:2 defeat to Qarabag in the final of the Azerbaijan Cup: "Today, Qarabag won.They enjoyed the opportunities more than us. We fought well, I am proud of my team. We worked all the season. I cannot be more proud f my team than I am now.
In the final, this is a game. Maybe, Qarabag had more chances. It's hard to tell a reason. Now, what is important is to go home and rest. Because next season we have very hard games to win. I think i am showing my best in Azerbaijan. It's clear in the numbers. I am continuing to do my best and to work hard. We'll see what's going to happen in the future. I am really proud of my performance this season.
I have contract, so I cannot leave Zira. It's not just about me, it's about Zira. I am happy here but I have to improve my career so we'll see what is going to happen.
Our team is ambitious. We're going to participate in really difficult games. We'll fight for winning."
