"The defeat to Belarus was upsetting."
İdman.biz reports with reference to Report.az that this was stated by Aykhan Abbasov, head coach of the Azerbaijan U-21 national team, at the press conference held after the match with Belarus.
The experienced specialist spoke about the test match held in Baranovichi with the Belarusian national team: "Everything worked out in the first 35 minutes. After Raul Mammadov's injury, the situation changed in favor of the opponent. We made many mistakes and we will draw conclusions from them. We will hold the next test match at home. We hope for a good result. The opposing team was better prepared than us. I don't want to single out any of my players. The fatigue of a tough season also had an effect. The first 35 minutes gave us hope. We will try to continue this. We are not discouraged."
It should be noted that the match ended with a 3:1 victory for the Belarusian national team. On June 8, the national team will hold a friendly match with the Montenegrin team of the corresponding age group at the Mehdi Huseynzade Sumgayit city stadium.
