Nuhi was disappointed with the result
The coach of Gjilan, Ardian Nuhiu, was left depressed after the 1:1 draw with Llapi on Saturday, in the opening match of the Kosovar football elite, held on Saturday.
"I was disappointed because the boys fought a lot and the only form that Llapi threatened us with were standard kicks or corners. There they hit us and took a three-pointer, which I personally think the football players played in the best form in terms of tactics, showed tactical discipline. But in such matches when so many chances are created, after we scored the first goal, I think the match should end earlier and everything would be easier", said Nuhiu for "ArtMotion", after the match.
Batatina: It was important not to lose
The coach of Llapi, Tahir Batatina, was satisfied with the point won against Gjilan at the start of the championship, and said that it was important that he did not lose.
"I am satisfied, the first game is always difficult. It has been more difficult for us to analyze Gjilan, while they have had it easier to analyze Llap, having seen him in four European matches. When you don't see any match of the opponent, it is difficult to analyze it. We did everything in the first half, but conceded a goal that should not be conceded. The defensive department should have been more attentive. I took risks, changed the scheme, played with two strikers. After the changes we noted. If we were calm, we would have scored the second goal as well. The boys showed character. From the next match we have more opportunities to have knowledge about the opponent. I congratulate the boys for their commitment and fight on the field. Gjilani has a good team, but for us it was important not to lose", coach Batatina told "ArtMotion" after the match.
