My players played great despite being 10 players; I congratulate them Javad Nekonam, Traktor's head coach, while thanking the fans for their support, said: "They were the friends of our 12th team as always and I hope we will see the success and happiness of the fans in the years to come." He said about the course of the game: We started the game well and had two chances to score, but after our player was sent off and because of another player's injury, we had to change. However, the team's response was outstanding and the players fought with all their might. Nkunam praised his team's performance in a 10-man situation: we didn't give the opponent a chance, we created a lot of chances and could have won with more goals. After we scored, we kept our focus and had full control of the game.
