According to Offsideplus.az , the coach of the team said at a press conference after the match, which they won with a minimum score (1: 0):

"The opponent showed his strength today as well. They defended very well as a team. We won, but the visiting team made us suffer on the field. We analyzed the match of "Kapaz" in the 1/8 final, which defeated "Sabah" with the score 2: 1. They played very hard today. We tried to break through the defense as much as we could. Time will tell how the second game will be. We will seriously prepare for the return meeting. Because we have a strong opponent. We all understand that. "

He also explained the reason for replacing Cesar Meza Collin:

"Cesar is a very important player for us. Leaving the field was not due to fatigue. On the other hand, I wanted to see Sadio Tounkara at work today. All players are valuable for our team.

Note that the return match between these teams will take place on February 7 at the Ganja city stadium.
