According to Offsideplus.az , the Bosnian expert said the following about the match:

I congratulate "Garabagh" on reaching the next stage. Today we played against a strong opponent. I thank my players for their struggle. I'm sorry, but I'm happy with my team because we played well. AEL proved today that it is able to play with clubs with larger budgets. I am also pleased with the atmosphere created by the fans. I wish the coronavirus pandemic to end soon and to have such an atmosphere in all games.

- You greeted journalists in Russian both at yesterday's and today's press conference. What is the reason for this?

- Being from Yugoslavia, I try to greet you in a language you can understand.

- Yesterday, "If you do not pass the stage, will you consider it a tragedy?" You said, "I can talk about this tomorrow." How do you feel about this defeat today?

- We are very sorry that we did not pass the stage. We wanted more than that. We respect all competitors. We go to any match to win.

- What prevented you from showing your game in Larnaca in Baku?

- We could not show the game we wanted. The condition of the pitch hindered both us and "Karabakh". Karabakh is more experienced than us in European cups. We have time to analyze this game. We want to develop ourselves and participate in the European Cups next time.

- If the provocation against Gurban Gurbanov a week ago happened against you today, how would you react to it?

- Congratulations to Gurban Gurbanov. He has been running Karabakh for 13 years and is doing a very good job. This is not a short time. There are emotions in football. I do not like what happened. Politics should be separate from football. We respect every competitor, regardless of the country he represents. We conceded a goal 5 minutes before the end. We and the fans had emotions. But we did not face any negative situation.
