"The goalkeepers invited to the national team have also been called up to the national team in previous gatherings."
These words were said by Farhad Veliyev, the former goalkeeper of the Azerbaijani national team.
He commented on Shahrudin Mahammadaliyev's invitation to the national team, who has not appeared on the field for 3 months.
"Although Shahrudin Mahammadaliyev has been suffering from injury for a long time, as far as I know, he has already started training. In my opinion, every goalkeeper called is worthy of the national team. Shahrudin is the main goalkeeper of the team. That's why he was invited. Yusif Imanov performs stably in "Kapaz". I think he could also be involved in the squad. Of course, it is the head coach's decision, we respect it," he said in his statement to sport24.az.
It should be noted that the Azerbaijani national team will face Saint Lucia on March 27 and Sierra Leone on March 30. Both games will be held at the Sumgayit city stadium named after Mehdi Huseynzade and will start at 19:00.
