Mizan News Agency – Rasool Khatibi, The head coach of Arak Aluminum football team made a statement in a press conference before the match against Traktor, the excerpt of which is read below:
* I always said I would like my team to play well. This will definitely happen in tomorrow’s game, as in previous games. I hope that a good game will take place between the two teams, and that a spectator-friendly game will emerge from the water, even though the spectators are not present.
* We have had a good performance so far. The past games are over for us and we are thinking about future games. I think we deserved the points we got. We have passed tough games and we have tough games ahead of us and we do not consider any team weak.
* I am satisfied with the shape of my team, especially in the second half of the previous game against Zobahan. I do not think we have ever done that before. All players, whether they play or not, work hard in training. In games that are five days apart, we try to focus on recovery. We are ready to play tomorrow and we will see a good game, God willing.
* My compatriots and Azerbaijanis have always been kind to me. The zeal and prejudice of Azerbaijanis in the world is exemplary. I was born in this city and I will definitely have this prejudice in my blood. I would like Traktor to succeed in all its games, but now I am the head coach of Arak Aluminum and I owe a debt to this team.
* The love and feeling they have for me in Arak has really embarrassed me. That’s why I like to make them proud. I am not saying that there is a difference between Arak and Tabriz, but as much as I love Tabriz, I also love the people of Arak. For this reason, I would like Arak football to leave a mark in the Premier League this year as well. As much as I tried in Tabriz, I have the same prejudice and zeal for Arak.
* We had a good recovery after the game with Zobahan. We have an injured player who is Omid Singh. The rest of our players are in tomorrow’s game and are ready for it.
