“We knew that we wouldn’t have an easy away game. Petrocub is a team that participated in the main stage of the Conference League last year. They have enough experience in European competitions. Even in the first match, at certain moments, they managed to give us difficulties. In my opinion, we secured an important victory.”
Idman.biz reports that these words were said by Sabah player Rahman Dashdamirov in an interview with Sport24.az.
Despite Sabah’s 2-0 win over Moldova’s Petrocub in the UEFA Conference League second qualifying round, he noted that the tie is not yet decided: “Nothing is over yet. We still have a tough game ahead. Our team secured a very important victory. We have only won the first half of the tie. Ahead of us is another challenging 90 minutes. In that game, we must give our all and settle the matter. As a team, we focus on each next game and try to progress step by step. Now, we are thinking only about the second leg against Petrocub.”
The return leg between the teams will take place on July 31 at Bank Respublika Arena in Masazir. The match will start at 20:00.
