With the participation of the head coach of our team Samir Abasov and Serbian footballer Voislav Stankovic before the match between Dinamo and Neftchi, which will be held on July 7 at 20:00 Baku time at the Boris Paychadze Dinamo Arena within the first qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League A press conference was organized. First, the head coach commented on the game:

It is a great honor and honor for us, the Neftchi family, to represent Azerbaijan in such a tournament after a long time. We have a little tension before the game. This is due to the size of the tournament, some of our players did not participate in such competitions at all. But we believe that after tomorrow's match, that tension will be off the field, we will represent "Neftchi" and our people well. The opponent has some advantages over us. The Georgian championship continues, 17 rounds left. Looking at us, they are fully prepared, both tactically and physically. Although we had a good training camp in Baku and Slovenia, we played only 3 test matches. Nevertheless, we will try to represent Neftchi properly. We know how tense tomorrow's game will be. Dinamo Tbilisi is a well-established, historic club like Neftchi. In addition, he competes for gold medals in the championship. We know the strength of Dynamo, because we watched their games. After the arrival of the new head coach Kakhaber Tskhadadze, we watched the last 5 matches of the opponent. We know their strengths, in what tactical scheme they play. But it's one thing to look visually, it's another to feel the team alive that the players will know when they appear. I know the head coach of Dinamo very well. I know what the teams he works for are capable of. Because I was his footballer. It will be an interesting game. "

Then Voislav Stankovic commented on the game: "We know that tomorrow we will have a difficult game with a team like Dynamo. We analyzed the opponent well. We will show our game and come out to win. "

Then the Serbian footballer answered journalists' questions: "I played for Inter under the leadership of Kakhaber Tskhadadze. As a head coach, I know him well. I know that he knows Azerbaijani football very well and what he demands from footballers. But we are the champions of Azerbaijan. I hope we will show our best and return to Azerbaijan with a victory. "

Samir Abasov's answer to the questions of the media was as follows: “It is not right to say anything about the main staff from now on. We have a day to think, and we will practice soon. We have identified 90-95 percent of the staff, we just do not want to hurry. Tomorrow, the players will come out knowing their work. We have great feelings. I'm excited myself. I am proud to participate in such a prestigious competition. As for Tskhadadze, I would not say that I work in his way, but I tried to take the best not only from Kakhaber, but from all the coaches I worked with. Tskhadadze is one of the leading coaches among them. I have a lot of respect for his coaching. What we say here and what we do on the field may not be the same, but I believe it will all coincide. When I say tension, I mean the responsibility of the players. Each team has its own problems. The opponent's head coach complains about the abundance of games, and I, on the contrary, can complain about the lack of games, but we do not dwell on it. We will try to use the opponent's problems. There are players we are negotiating with and we are waiting for their way. Unfortunately, we could not deliver it like this match. These are issues that do not depend only on us as a club. Nevertheless, we have prepared well with the players we have. Both tomorrow and in the return meeting, we must show our character rather than quality. We need to understand where we represent. We have to show our character as much as we can and get out of the game. ”
