"I watched Qarabag's game against Napoli in Naples. I saw a well-organized team on the field, made up of fast and technically skilled players. They had very high-quality legionnaires in their squad, and they also put on a good performance against the Serie A club."
These words were said by Careca, a former football player of the Brazilian national team and Italy's Napoli club, while talking about his team's game (2:0) against Qarabag in the main stage of the UEFA Champions League.
The veteran striker emphasized that the Azerbaijani representative demonstrated a disciplined game.
"Qarabag gave the impression of a team that tries to launch fast counterattacks in that match and quickly recovers after losing control of the ball. It's never easy to play against such opponents. Despite Napoli's victory, there was a good fight on the field," he said in a statement to AZERTAC.
It should be noted that Careca is remembered for 30 goals in 64 games for the Brazilian national team and was the winner of the Copa America with the team. Playing for Napoli, he won the Italian championship, the national cup and the UEFA Cup.
