WINNER OF AZERBAIJAN SUPERCUP

He wins the Super Cup for the second time

Neftchi, which is seriously preparing for the season, won its first title before the championship.

The flagship won the Super Cup organized by "Sahar" newspaper . However, defeating Turan in the decisive match on July 23 at the Sumgayit city stadium named after Mehdi Huseynzadeh was not easy.  

True, Neftchi opened the account. Nazim Aliyev wrote his name on the board in the 22nd minute. But after the break, more precisely, in the 64th minute, the representative of Tovuz took full advantage of the penalty kick awarded by the referee - 1:1. 9 minutes the referee showed the penalty point again, this time in favor of our team. However, Yunis Huseynov opportunity wasted decided . After that, no goals were scored in the main time or in the extra time.     

The winner was to be determined by a post-match penalty shootout. Neftchi , which performed more accurately (8:7), lifted the Super Cup for the second time.
