Neftçi PFK

That's the other thing.

Like now, for example, next week, we play with Nefci and in three days we play with Slavia Prague in Champions League.

And then in two days again, in two days, one day rest, one day training, and we play again against Gabala.

So at some point, and you have to be honest, I don't have the perfect cycle.

In May twenty twenty-five, they met Qarabag in the Azerbaijani Cup Final.

Qarabag were the country's dominant modern force and its established European representative.

Sabah won three to two after extra time.

The club's first trophy had arrived against the exact institution it needed to challenge.

Their attacking approach also produced a thirty-three-match unbeaten run.

Zira are another club from the Baku area, but, but Sabah's clearest competitive yardstick is Qarabag.

The dominant modern force Neftchi remain the capital's traditional giant.

Sabah's relationship with those clubs is less inherited hatred than an argument over the future.

Um, all right.

So, in match day one, Neftchi of Uzbekistan beat Air Force Club of Iraq, one-nil.

Shabab Al-Ahli beats Tractor one-nil.

Um, Al Shamal and Al Ettifaq drew one-one, a very exciting game, and Al Shamal, uh, played very well.

Um, any, anything, uh, you wanna mention about any of these games?

Um, I guess let's just go one by one.

Neftchi against, uh, Air Force, probably the, the, the game that probably the least amount of people watch.

It's, on paper, doesn't look like the most interesting game, but it was a, it was a very good, very good game.
