What did Vitaly Levchenko say about the match in which Navbahor was defeated?

After the match between Neftchi and Navbahor (3:2) in the next round of the Super League, the home team's coach Vitaly Levchenko shared his thoughts.

"We expected the derby to be difficult. And it turned out to be so. Navbahor is a good team and today they were able to play a worthy game. They took the lead twice. But our guys showed determination and our 12th player brought the victory to the fans. I think the fans were happy," said Vitaly Levchenko.

- Why is Toma Tabatadze not included in the roster?
- Tabatadze has a thigh injury. He is currently undergoing treatment. He will return to our team in about 7-10 days and help us.

- Is it true that the substitutions in today's game were justified?
- We made substitutions in exactly the right positions. We understood that we needed to strengthen the game and increase the pressure on the front line, because we were behind twice. We played at home and only thought about winning. All the players who came on the field gave their all.

- The team is preparing for the game with a different tactic, and they are coming on the field with a different tactic. Is this a gift to the opponents?
- No, it is not a gift. The opponent analyzes us, we analyze them. We have more players playing in attack, but we should not forget about defense. Today we conceded 2 goals. The second goal was scored after our mistake. It happened after a long pass. We play better in every game and for the result.

- What are your goals for the cup and championship matches?
- We don't distinguish between the championship and the cup. It's an important competition for every team. Right now, whoever is the strongest of the players will play there, and we will rotate them based on the situation. We will play in two tournaments.

- Will you use the same lineup for the cup match in Namangan?
- There's still time until that match. We'll play with Mash'al in between. It's important for us to recover now, because the players put in a lot of effort today. We'll look at the players' condition then.

All teams are adding skilled players to the lineup. There are no passing games. Each team is working hard to get points.

- Which team do you think has the best chance of winning the championship?
- It's difficult to talk about this at the start of the championship now. The teams that no one expected are at the top, and the favorites are not in their places. After 6-7 rounds, it is possible to draw a conclusion based on the state of the teams. Follow “Zamin” news on “Telegram”
