We are in the office, Abdullayev does not take his eyes off the blue screen. Talking about the existing problems in sports journalism, as well as in the country's football, we watch the match in Bayil within the framework of the country cup.

In the 26th minute, 5 minutes after Amil Yunanov opened the scoring from a penalty kick, Roini Ismayilov restored the status quo.

- The Greens are weaker than the opponent. But they are very eager. 

- Yes, teacher Rovnag. The Greens are Zagatala and participate in the First Division. The other is Sabail. You probably know ...

- How is it "Sabail"? What kind of game are they playing?

At this point in the conversation, Roini passes the second ball through the gates of the home team, and a few minutes later the teams go to the break.

- Tell me, does Sabail play with the main team?

- Teacher Rovnag, when the main team said that Hagen, Keshevarzi, Imnadze - these are legionnaires, Kamal played for "Neftchi", Amil Yunanov was called to the national team. So ... Rauf, Afran, Kadriu, Ekstein are in reserve.

Minutes pass, "Zagatala" is defended with confidence. Although inexperience manifests itself at certain points, the visitors try to show that they are not behind the opponent due to perseverance. Following Adil Nagiyev, Ekstein also entered the field and immediately equalized.

- A person's heart hurts for "Greens". They suffer so much, it is better not to lose. But they play interestingly, I like it.

- Rovnag teacher, conditions and money are very important in football. If you have money, you bring good legionnaires, train normally, distribute prizes for victories, eat fatty foods. Sabail is one of the weakest teams in the Premier League, but it is at least 5 times better than the Greens in the budget.

As soon as I say the last sentence, Hendrik finds his way to the opponent's goal - 3: 2.

- Look, there is a player who scored this goal, yes, he is a legionnaire, he is a good player. His annual salary is Zagatala's half-year budget. You know Afran and Rauf, you know what they are capable of.

- I really liked this team. I know that they will be so eager in the Premier League and European Cups, we will improve their budgets and create conditions.

- Do it, please do it. Believe me, they will be much better than that. 1-1.5 million manat per season is enough for you to see a team fighting for European Cups. There is a base in Zagatala, there is a place to stay, and local children, as you can see today, are used to playing football. The head coaches are also from Zagatala. Skillful, disciplined, loved in the region. There are some fans who can't sleep on the day of the game, they are literally "football patients". 

- We must pay attention to this issue. I also think that if we do not move football to the regions, the situation will get worse. You say the infrastructure in Zagatala is excellent, right? The only thing missing is money?

- Yes, teacher Rovnag. Most of the players who just ran after the ball in green were born in 2000, 2001, 2002, they are the future of our football. Today they have passions, they play. However, due to the conditions and climate in the first division, they will move to other areas in 2-3 years. Please own them before it's too late.

He thanked me for the next meeting of the AFFA President. I stop for a moment as I walk out the door.

- Rovnag bey, tomorrow there will be "Turan Tovuz" - "Gabala", "Sabah" - "Kapaz" games. It will be very interesting, please, let me see.

- Will "Sabah" play in Baku?

- Yes, it will start at 5 pm. In Masazir, at the Bank Respublika Arena.

- I can't watch football every time because I have less time. But I liked this game. If there is such tension, I want to go to the stadium.

- Make sure it will be more tense. If "Kapaz" plays, it is worth watching. The players in this team will want to show everyone what they are capable of.

- Well, then we will meet tomorrow at 5 o'clock at the stadium in Masazir.
