Interview of Zire captain Kismet Aliyev to Idman.biz website
- How do you evaluate the first game in which you won 1:0 against Sheriff in the first qualifying round of the European League?
- We knew that a difficult game awaits us in Moldova. Sheriff is a team with enough experience in Europe. We were very well prepared for the game. It was very difficult for us from the first minutes, but later we found our match. At least we scored 1 goal and took the lead. In the first match, we at least tried to get to know the opponent. Second match might be easier for us.
- How would you interpret the chances after this victory?
- Maybe we can be slightly ahead. But when analyzing Sheriff, we saw that they have enough players who can change the fate of the match. I think the chances are 50/50 even if we have a slight advantage.
- Did you like your match?
- I will try to do more in the upcoming matches. I will do my best to help my team.
- What will be the plans for the second match? Are you going to prepare for penalty kicks?
- We haven't worked on 11-meter free kicks. The team did not prepare for this even during the training camp. Our mind was only on the match. In the coming days, we will prepare for the 2nd match with the tasks of our coaches.
