The hosts had advantage during the whole match. In the first half “Gabala” made offences from right wing but there were some moments when the Azerbaijani club attacked from left wing and possessed center.
“Gabala” possessed the ball during the both two halves and scored two goals at the end of the match.
Everybody expected better game from Gia Geguchadze’s team. The Georgians could hardly make good offences.
The Azerbaijani fans supported their club during the whole match. Young players of “Dinamo” have never played such tough match and it will bring them experience.
Unfortunately, all three Georgian clubs lost Europa League.
