After UEFA Champions League first qualifying round first leg match, Samir Abbasov evaluated the match and spoke about the fate of the two-match confrontation.
Samir Abasov: The match turned out to be exactly as tense as we mentioned during the pre-match press conference yesterday. Although we managed to win today, I do not believe that the fate of this couple has been decided and the winner has been revealed. The second leg match will reveal the winner.
Dinamo appeared to be in good condition on the pitch as they play official matches once every four days and we have only had 3 friendly matches up to date.
After the opponent scored, there was chaos in the defensive line, but during the break I gave individual tasks to the players and we were able to sort out the game in the second half.
I warned my players not to rely on their own ability and qualifications in such a match and to play carefully and boldly, which is especially important in such controversies. It is good that we got the desired result in this match, but everything is ahead and we want to successfully complete the two- round confrontation.
We will make the right conclusions from today's match and we will definitely change the tactics in Baku. Today we had some shortcomings, also, we have a new player in the team who does not know the philosophy of the team well yet and plays in his own style, he needs some time to adapt. We will try to control the ball, play more offensive football and finally win this round.
