"We had a lot of scoring chances"



After the "Tottenham" (England) - "Qarabag" match (3:0) held within the first round of the League stage in the Europa League, the press conference of our team's head coach Gurban Gurbanov was held. An experienced specialist expressed his opinion about the meeting:

 

"Maybe today we didn't deserve to lose with 0:3. Because we had a lot of scoring chances. Experience and mastery won today. I don't have a lot of complaints about my players. But they could play better. The fact that the opponent was in the minority gave us some comfort. You know that the strongest championship in the world is held in England and "Tottenham" has always been among the leaders. Our players were aware of this and inevitably there was some excitement. It seems to me that this factor prevented it."

 

The head coach said that before the match, the team's traffic jam and late arrival at the stadium affected the result: "We came two and a half hours away. This inevitably disturbed the concentration of the players. But I don't want to give that as a reason. Still, such situations should not happen in such a big tournament. When we arrived at the stadium, we were told that the game should start in 40 minutes. We could not prepare normally for the match. Being stuck in a traffic jam had a big impact on the result."
