Qarabag's head coach Gurban Gurbanov said this at a press conference after their 3-1 home victory over Gabala in the quarterfinals of the Azerbaijan Cup , Offsideplus.az reports.

An experienced specialist commented on the departure of Donald Guerrier from the team:

"Guerrier is very smart, I know him well. He can't deceive us. He couldn't leave without our consent. It was already questioned whether he would play. I was told that if there was an option, would you let Guerrier go. We let him go."

"We didn't gain anything from this transfer. Every family has a capricious child. It has an effect on the team. I think it was the right decision. It affected other players as well. We saw everything. There is a shortage of players in the squad. But the players who replace them are bad. they don't make an impact. "

The head coach said he did not see a difference between goalkeepers Shahruddin Mahammadaliyev and Emil Balayev:

"We gave Balayev a chance because he is ready today."

Gurbanov said that Kvabena Ovusu could play in 4 positions:

"He has that ability. That's why we use Ovusu in different positions. I like such players."

An experienced expert said that it would be pointless to appeal to any body regarding Nurlan Ibrahimov:

"We do not think about the fine. Our employee has been removed from football. This is what worries us the most. The punishment given to Nurlan is a moral blow to us. This is what affects us the most. We just need to always understand the responsibility of the name" Karabakh ". "We always have to take the right step. Of course, there are technical mistakes. But the main thing is to preserve the name of the club. We must not be disliked." (Report)
