"When preparing for all opponents, we want to gain points. Unexpected results happen in modern football."
Idman.Biz reports that the head coach of the Azerbaijani national team, Aykhan Abbasov, said these words before the match against the French national team tomorrow in the qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup.
"Anything is possible. The players also really want to gain points. We were focused on winning the match against Iceland. Ukraine and Iceland had a chance to get out of the group. We look at some groups, there are some weaker teams where you can score more points. But ours was a very strong group. We will believe tomorrow. If there is no belief, it is not worth doing this job.
There may be changes in their squad tomorrow. There are new players who will try to show themselves more. We also have losses. Toral Bayramov was also injured yesterday. We believe in the players who will play in his place. There will be fan support. I believe that our players will at least fight well. Fighting such an opponent today can be considered a step in the right direction for our future," said Abbasov.
It should be noted that the match between Azerbaijan and France will start on November 16 at 21:00 at the Tofig Bahramov Republican Stadium.
