— Even though the second half of the season has just begun, both teams demonstrated open and attacking football. Frankly, if the chances had been utilized more effectively, we might have seen more than three goals in this match, — began the coach. — We knew well that "Sogdiana" always plays actively and offensively at home. Therefore, we conducted our preparations accordingly to match that style.
According to him, the team built a strategy focused on maintaining balance against the opponent’s attacks and scoring via counterattacks.
— We worked on a counterattack plan based on a specific strategy, and as a result, it bore fruit, — said Berdiev. — Winning in Jizzakh as an away team is not easy. That’s why today’s victory is especially valuable. I sincerely congratulate our fans on this achievement. This win is a worthy gift for them.
At the press conference, the coach was also asked about the team’s preparation for the second half and their physical condition. Berdiev emphasized that the training period had been conducted very thoroughly and at a high tempo.
— We prepared very seriously for the second round, — he continued. — In every training session, high intensity was required from the players. Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say our current condition is good. We can perform well against any opponent. Today, our team played meaningfully both in defense and in attack.
The coach was also asked about the foreign players who joined the team. He clarified the rumors about one of them allegedly leaving.
— That information is not true, — said the coach. — None of our foreign players have left the team. They have temporarily left the country to resolve visa issues but will be back soon. Each of them will stay with the team and continue participating in competitions.
