According to Offsideplus.az, the 40-year-old specialist said the following about the game:

"The players did all the tasks in the first 25 minutes. After that, we started to control the ball more. We made tactical changes compared to the first game. Jabir Amirli and Dmitry Nagiyev were more active on the wings in the first half. Nagiyev could be successful in attack. But I think he is good in defense. The cup is held in a different atmosphere. The defeat in the first game made our job difficult. "

Abbasov also said that they will face Qarabag in the semifinal:

"Now we have to prepare for the championship. Everyone knows the strength of the opponent. But we will try to be successful against them. We will think of something for that."
