Viktor Jalilov: "the lack of stability has cracked"

After the match of the 26th round of the Coca-Cola Superleague “Navbahor" – "Kokand-1912", the head coach of the hosts Viktor Jalilov expressed his opinion about the game.

- As a coach, this game was really hard for me. We conceded a quick goal. Then we took over the playing field, we also scored a goal, which, despite the fact that we created many situations later, we were not able to use them. In the second half, the opponent scored two goals because we lost our balance. Somewhere the fatigue in the players gave their word, somewhere the ignoring rebuffed. But the guys tried to give what they have, such cases happen in football. Although in the second half we also had a few opportunities, in some situations when the goalkeeper “Kokand-1912" acted well, in some cases our players lacked some skill to score a goal. In the overall standings, we surpassed the opponent in the number of attacks and strikes. But in football, the team that attacks a lot doesn't always win. In a sense, luck was also on the side of the Kokand people today.

- What can you say about participation”Navbahora " in the current season?

- You know, if you think from the first round, our team looked like a ship caught in a hurricane. If we win one game, we lose points in one on our own field, and then we get points in away matches. There was not enough stability. In the second period, it was possible to restore balance in the game, the "ship" also got on the right path and continued its smooth "sailing". Unfortunately, in some schemes, it was the lack of stability that caused the panic. I wouldn't say that this year's championship was unsuccessful for the team, we got more positives from the season than negatives. Let's analyze the games where there are positive moments, where there are disadvantages, based on this, we will prepare for the upcoming season.

- Why was Ehsoni Panshanbeh replaced in the second half, who played well? Why didn't you remove Zabihillo Urinbayev from the game, who couldn't use many opportunities in this situation?

- We left Zabihillo on the field so that he could participate in aerial battles during attacks and standards. Urinbayev showed activity, only in the last round he was unlucky. When we noticed that he was also tired at the end of the match, we replaced him with another player. This is the reason why panshenbe was replaced.
