Sabail's head coach Aftandil Hajiyev said this at a press conference after the third round match of the Azerbaijani Premier League, in which they defeated Sumgayit 1-0 at home, Offsideplus.az reports.

The 41-year-old specialist said that they played well despite the odds: "I want to congratulate" Sumgayit ". Aykhan Abbasov has done a great job. It is impossible to defeat them easily today. We spent a lot of effort. I think we have won a deserved victory. We could lose these 3 points. "Sumgayit" had goal episodes at our door. But in general, we managed to keep the ball well. We need to look ahead to improve our game. Today we gained 3 important points. We do not have much time to rejoice. We have a difficult trip to Gabala. "Gabala showed with its game that it has a claim to the Euroleague."

Hajiyev said that goalkeeper Kamran Agayev was injured: "Kamran injured his finger. Therefore, he was out of training and did not participate in test matches." (Report)
