Yurii Hura: «Tomorrow we'll prove that we can do so much more.»
Yurii Hura answered the journalists' questions at a press conference ahead of the match with FC Zire.
- Last match you didn't have any players with Moldovan passport, what do you say about it?
- Well, we have players with Moldovan citizenship in the team, but we have to play in a match of European level, so we decided to let other players play, those who do not have such citizenship.
- Do you plan to go to the sea with the team tomorrow?
- No, there are no such plans. You certainly have hot weather here, although it is also quite hot here. The only difference, perhaps, is the humidity. It will be difficult for both teams.
- When you were preparing for the match, did Ayub Allash help you in studying the opponent?
- Indeed, we talked to him, we got some information on the whole Azerbaijani soccer, as well as on the opponent.
- How do you like the opponent after the first game, if we take into account the lot in general?
- I can not say that we were afraid of FC “Zira”, that's how the lot fell out, that's how the first match turned out. Tomorrow we will prove that we can do much more.
- Who is the favorite, and how does it affect the team?
- It does not affect the team, if someone considers us a favorite, we have to prove it on the soccer field.
- Will it be considered a big defeat for the club if we fail to qualify for the next round?
- Of course, we would like to prove that we are stronger than you, and tomorrow we will try to do it.
- Did you have a conversation with the club president that this game is the last chance for you?
- There were no such talks, but it is clear that every coach wants to win, as well as every president.
- How well do you know Rashad Sadigov?
- We know him quite well, my assistant played with him in Turkey, I got a lot of information from him. When the lot falls on a team, we analyze its manager.
- Have you consulted with Roman Grigorchuk about the Azerbaijani rivals and soccer in general?
- I had no communication with him, it so happened that he quickly left for the training camp in “Neftchi”, I just did not want to distract the man in this situation.
- Did you foresee the scenario of penalty shootout in tomorrow's match?
- We are also ready for it.
