The head coach of the youth team Under-19 of the Sheriff Academy of Football, Luka Pavlovich about the second match with FC Qabala, Azerbaijan:

-Good evening. I congratulate the Qabala team and I wish success in future matches. We’ve gotten a good result in the first leg. Then I said that Qabala remains the favourite. They play football of higher level, than we play. We still should work hard to reach this level, in such serious matches. It was difficult in the first half. Guests put much pressure on our half of the pitch. We a little lacked good luck to sustain the first 45 minutes. Already at the score 1:1 it was necessary to play in a different way. But my players thought that they could play in their own way. Can play open football, wanted to score the second goal. They needed to be more compact and to wait for the chance on counterattacks. It is a lesson for us. We must learn it. Unfortunately, it isn't enough such matches in the Championship for us in which players can acquire and achieve quality. We win all matches there and when we need  to play on the international stage, there isn't enough neither physical, nor tactical standard. It is necessary to work a lot to become better.
