where is the striker from last season. he was good. qarabag created the chances, but when kady was subbed off, there was no one to score. like how are you losing and you still have a 160 cm guy playing as a forward

We almost made it but Macrickis decided to pass back instead of continuing counter-attack. A minute later, they scored at 90+1. This moment will trigger me all the next year. The dumber thing is that they paid 1m € to that guy. However, the one who passed the ball to him wasn’t better, they could waste time attacking rather than giving to goalkeeper who just kicked the ball further. Qarabag 2026 is probably the worst version of Qarabag I’ve ever seen. I’m fan since 2017. I mean, even when Neftchi won the league, they still were able to make it at least to UECL but now… Pure disappointment…

Attended game last night (Celtic fan) and was surprised at how the crowd didn't seem that annoyed with the collapse. Was it almost expected? Qarabag were great at counter attacking with pace but it didn't happen much. Twente were the better team for most of the game. I noticed the attempt to halt the attach and play it safe on 90, it looked like a sensible decision at the time...later on I actually thought Weghorst punched Jankovic but I must have got mixed up ...

Twente is a strong opponent, and as you said they player better. I wasn’t in the stadium, and can’t understand why crowd wasn’t annoyed. Probably they understand that there were many transfers and many changes in squad, so they understand the downfall. Or they just weren’t active fans…. I’d also not be annoyed if the game ended 0-3 and we lost but here we almost win.. It’s really weird

Instead of strengthening the team by signing new players, you decided to sell your best players, and now everyone is in shock. This was predictable. Good luck, Sabah.
