The young specialist then answered journalists' questions:

-  What is the specific goal of "Zira"?

- It is an 8-team championship and each team wants to qualify for the European Cups. Our goal is not to occupy any place. Our main desire is to develop our game. I want to be in the top three, to be a champion. Today it is clear that "Qarabag" and "Neftchi" are superior. Like any head coach, I want to qualify for the European Cups. Our selection work is slow. We have agreed with one player, but he will join the team in 2 days. We will see how it will be in the end. We want to give young people a chance. Time will tell.

- What are your thoughts on refereeing? Do you feel some pressure against Zira?

- We faced similar incidents last year. I do not want to conclude with the judge. We also saw that there was no offside in the goal we scored. I try my best not to talk about judging. I do not want to make our football ugly. When there is a substitution, the player must reach the position. Rauf Huseynli started the refereeing game before he reached his position on the field. One point is a good result.

- How do you assess Agabala Ramazanov's speech?

- When Agabala was not invited to the national team for the first time, he had psychological problems. You need to be strong and overcome such problems. He was injured and contracted the coronavirus when he was in the best shape. He was a little unlucky. I hope it will slowly regain its ideal shape.

- If new players can't come, will you have any complaints about the staff?

- No, we have young players. We have attracted new players to our squad. We will try to give everyone a chance. I want our promising players to gain experience in the replacement team. There are some who have the potential to become members of the national team in 4-5 years. Volkov returned to the green after a long time. I took a risk by playing Stoilov. I want to have a large staff. If transfers are delayed, it is up to us. We are negotiating with some players. I gave the players freedom this summer. It is difficult to hold a training camp in Baku.
