�Garabagh�   left the fight in the Champions League

Baku/14.08.19/Turan: On Tuesday the FC "Karabakh" lost to the Cyprus APOEL in Baku with a score 0: 2, and left the fight in the Champions League on the sum of the results of two meetings. However, according to the European Cup regulations, the Azerbaijani team got the right to play in the playoff round of the Europa League. The first match of the third qualifying round of the Champions League on August 6 in Nicosia, "Karabakh" won 2-1. Alas, Karabakh lost this advantage in Baku.

Although the "KarabaKH" began the match with the attacks, in the middle of the first half, the guests leveled the game. At the 34th minute, the captain of "Karabakh" Rashad Sadikhov unintentionally knocked down the player of APOEL in his own penalty area. The 11-meter flawlessly hit the captain Thomas De Vincenti.

"Garabagh" could recoup at the end of the first half. However, Abdella Zubir could not make a goal from the line of the goalkeeper's area. "Karabakh" seized the initiative and created several scoring chances. However, the ball after hitting Richard Almeida hit the bar. At the 68th minute did not miss one of the rare scoring chances, and Uros Matic, capturing the ball after the mistakes of the Karabakh players from a long distance hit the Wagner goal. " The game ended 0: 2. According to the sum of the results of two matches in the round of the Champions League playoffs, APOEL won. "Karabakh" suffered a very annoying defeat, and the team should blame only themselves.

Many mistakes are still in defense. The over-aged Rashad Sadikhov can no longer cope with the duties of a defender. His failures negatively affect the game and partners. Richard Almeida also surrendered greatly. He tries hard, but cannot perform the functions of a dispatcher. The attack of Mahir Emreli is not enough. The team needs another who knows how to score. In the playoff round of the Europa League, the opponent of "Karabakh" will be the winner of the pair "Linfield" (Northern Ireland) - "Sutjeska" (Montenegro). In the first match, Linfield won 2-1.

The matches of the playoff round of the Europa League will be held on August 22 and 29. In the Europa League, the Baku "Neftchi" continues to fight, which in the first game on August 8 played a draw against Israel's Bnei Yehuda with a score of 2: 2. The second match will take place on August 15. -06D--
