Interview with “Araz-Nakhchivan” midfielder Felipe Santos for Futbolxeber.az.
– You defeated “Turan Tovuz” 2-1 in the second round of the Azerbaijan Premier League. How would you comment on the victory?
– The game was tough. “Turan Tovuz” played with long balls. As a team, we were well prepared for the match. We are very happy to have won. Now we need to focus on the next game.
– In the moment when your team scored the second goal, everyone expected you to take the shot, but you passed…
– I saw that my teammate was in a better position, so I passed. I’m glad he was able to score. It’s also satisfying to provide an assist.
– In the next match, you will face “Gabala.” What are your expectations for the game against your former team?
– Yes, “Gabala” is one of my former clubs. Three years ago, I won the Azerbaijan Cup with that team. It will be a tough match. As with every game, we will go onto the pitch to win because we have goals to achieve.
– In the previous round against “Zira,” there was a dispute with opposing coach Rashad Sadygov. Don’t you think you acted a bit aggressively in that incident?
– I have respect for Rashad Sadygov. He is a good coach. Sometimes such situations occur during a match. I have already forgotten that incident.
– It is said that “Zira” was interested in you during the summer. Did you really receive an offer?
– There were offers. But I have a contract with “Araz-Nakhchivan.” I’m happy to be here. I have also played in European competitions with my team, including the Conference League. In short, I am satisfied to stay at “Araz-Nakhchivan.”
