A one-man rearguard from Rashad Dadashov
There were 11 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Renat Huseynov damages knee ligaments — 49 days out
The words a physio says slowly. 49 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.
Match15 Aug 2026
Nowhere to hide for Ravan
0‑7 against Qarabag, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.

The ground has had enough
“We travel everywhere and we get this.” 6 of the 25 senior players heard it walking off, and the ones who did not hear it were not playing.

Thiago Perruisset is a medical away from Ravan
The deal with Boca Juniors is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.
Transfer targets17 Aug 2026
Ravan bid $340.0K for Xəyal Fərzullayev
The offer went to Sumgayit this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Emin Guseynov in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Ravan this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Match15 Aug 2026
7 goals as Ravan and Qarabag go for it
Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 7 goals between Ravan and Qarabag, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Ravan
The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.
