“Azerbaijan can win if they prefer attacking football, as they did in the match against Sweden.”
This was stated by Vurgun Huseynov, a former Azerbaijan national team player, in a statement to “Report”.
The 36-year-old defender, speaking about the UEFA Nations League game in Slovakia, said he expects a good result:
“We did not make a bad impression in the first match against Sweden, where we lost 1:3. If Ramil Sheydayev had taken the penalty correctly, the result could have been different. I wish our team success in today’s match, I think we will win at least 1 point. “The new coach Fernando Santus needs time to instill his style of play in the national team. Of course, this is impossible in 10 days. If it is Azerbaijan. It prefers attacking football, as in the first match, it can win.”
It is worth noting that the match between Azerbaijan and Slovakia in the second round of the Nations League will start today at 20:00 Baku time.
