A press conference was held ahead of the UEFA Conference League third qualifying round second-leg match between Qarabag and Dinamo Kyiv.

Offsideplus.az reports that Qurban Qurbanov, head coach of the Agdam club, addressed the media:

"First, congratulations to Sabah on qualifying for the Champions League play-offs. It is a great achievement. As for us, we have prepared well and will try to secure a positive result. Although we are 1-0 down against a team with a strong defence, we believe in ourselves."

Speaking about individual mistakes from the first leg, the experienced specialist added:

"There will be some rotation in attack. Jafarguliyev was in the starting lineup for the first match as well and didn't play badly. Sometimes anxiety builds up, allowing the opponent to close in. We need to minimize these mistakes."

Regarding Abdellah Zoubir playing through the centre, he noted:

"The players who aren't playing should think about this—why aren't they getting minutes? They need to reflect on themselves."

When asked if failing to score in the last three matches created pressure, Qurbanov commented:

"Does it create psychological pressure? Yes, it does. Having been in football for years, I see it clearly. When players are clinical, their confidence grows. This is just a passing phase."

On Oleksiy Kashсрuk playing centrally, he said:

"His main asset is his finishing ability. He is one of our most clinical players in training and physically among the fittest. Musa hasn't played a full 90 minutes yet, and others aren't at 100% either, so we will rotate again tomorrow. Kashuk got into good scoring positions, he just couldn't convert."
